How to install D-link DWA-172 (ID 2001:3318) driver












5















Just to share the solution that allowed me to install the D-Link AC600 DWA-172 on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS.
Kernel: 4.4.0-31-lowlatency







  1. Check your hardware ID by running lsusb to confirm you have the same adapter.



    ID 2001:3318 D-Link Corp.



  2. In the Terminal run:



    sudo apt-get install git build-essential linux-headers-generic
    git clone https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux.git
    cd rtl8812au



  3. Then you'll need to edit the file os_dep/linux/usb_intf.c to add :



    {USB_DEVICE(0x2001, 0x3318),.driver_info = RTL8821}, /* D-Link DWA-172 */


    in the #ifdef CONFIG_RTL8821A section.




  4. In the Terminal run:



    make
    sudo make install
    sudo modprobe 8812au


  5. Reboot





Note: I rebooted after the install and again after running modprobe... but I understand this was not required.



Hope that this info is helpful to others.



Take care!
