@UW1 your WiFi device is the following:
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 7392:a812 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd
This is another dongle with a Realtek chipset (similar to the one from the OP). It looks me like it has the wrong driver. Since it’s a Realtek device, you should also be able to install the driver for it fairly easily following the steps above. I’ve pasted them again in order below. The same caveats apply about running code from the web, but this script has worked for myself and others many times.
sudo wget http://downloads.fars-robotics.net/wifi-drivers/install-wifi -O /usr/bin/install-wifi
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/install-wifi
sudo install-wifi
After installing the driver I’ve found it’s best to turn off the Power Management feature of the chip, which tends to cause issues. To do this, type sudo nano rc.local
and add the following line:
iwconfig wlan0 power off
Then save and exit using CTRL+O, Enter, and CTRL+X, and restart. If your Shake is configured to connect to a network SSID it should do so automatically.
Let me know if you encounter problems.
