I’ve been trying for a couple hours now and I can’t seem to get this to work. I've been searching all over this site and nothing has helped or I’ve tried it and ran into a obstacle. My wireless adapter is connected and is being picked up in the lsusb command but not in the wireless internet connecting box. I have tried so hard to install the drivers onto my Ubuntu system but I can’t since I have no internet and I can’t install git or wine or anything because it just says errors for everything I try to download through terminal. My hotspot doesn’t show up either so I can’t use that as a temporary solution either. The only thing that pops up in my network settings is vpn and wired.

  • NetGear Wnda 3100v3 adapter.
  • IdVendor 0x0846 NetGear, Inc,
  • Idproduct 0x9014

The exact error I am getting for install for example:

E: Package git has no installation candidate.

For basically everything I try to install through terminal.

And other errors such as

E: unable to locate package https://github.com/jurobystricky
E: could find any package by glob AND regex (same address)

How are you going about installing packages? With apt-get? This here:

The exact error I am getting for install for example. E: Package git has no installation candidate.

looks like you need to either fix your /etc/apt/sources.list or sources.list.d or you need to run apt-get update first, to fetch available packages.

The error:

E: unable to locate package https://github.com/jurobystricky E: could find any package by glob AND regex (same address)

looks very suspicious to me. Never seen anything like that. Are you doing something like this: apt-get install https://github.com/jurobystricky. If you are, then that's not the way apt-get works. With apt-get you can only install packages that are available. You can get the list of available packages like this: https://superuser.com/questions/408082/how-do-i-get-a-list-of-available-i-e-uninstalled-packages-in-debian
