I am trying to download and install a driver for the Archer T2UH wireless USB adapter. Nothing works

Question

I have Ubuntu 4.8.0-52.55-generic 4.8.17.

I have downloaded three different drivers (versions all named mt7610u-something) from this answer forum and none of them will install. Most fail compiling, with problems including

error: ‘IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS’ undeclared here (not in a function)
  struct ieee80211_supported_band Cfg80211_bands[IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS];

and

error: assignment from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
  pChipOps->ChipSwitchChannel = Default_ChipSwitchChannel;

Another compiles, but the resulting 'mt7610u.ko' file could not be loaded into the kernel because of an unidentified symbol (not specified).

Is there a working version of the driver? or do I have to return the USB wireless adaptor?
