I am very new to linux and driver installations. I have an AmeriDroid USB adapter that uses the RT5572 chipset. I have 16.04 Ubuntu Minimal 3.10 32 bit installed on an Odroid XU4.



This is what I am seeing when I perform the following lshw -C network command and then the following lsusb command:



root@odroid:~# lshw -C network 
*-network:0 DISABLED
description: Ethernet interface
physical id: 7
bus info: usb@1:1.1
logical name: wlan0
serial: 70:f1:1c:05:26:aa
capabilities: ethernet physical
configuration: broadcast=yes driver=rt2800usb driverversion=3.10.106-151 firmware=N/A link=no multicast=yes

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 148f:5572 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT5572 Wireless Adapter


I am at a total loss on how to make the darn thing enable. Any help would be appreciated as I have actually 5 various adapters that I need to get working.
