Un-plug the adapter, connect it to the ethernet and run this:

sudo /opt/scripts/tools/update_kernel.sh --bone-channel --testing

This will install 4.15.0-rc6, "the latest"

Next reboot, with your module plugged..

See if it works..

If it still fails, you'll neither to:

A: fix the driver
B: ping the maintainer of that driver
C: pay someone to fix the driver
