I just installed an SL7 box for my grandson. Internet connection was easy
with a direct cable to the BT-supplied hub. On trying with a Netgear usb
wireless dongle, dmesg showed that it was recognised but there was no
further action.
Booting the elrepo 3.18 kernel gave an immediate connection using the ar5523
interface driver. I would prefer to use the standard kernel but I'm not
clear what needs to be done to get this (quite old) device working.
Suggestions appreciated. Thanks.
Can you post the output of 'lsusb'?
Then we can see the vendor:device IDs of your network device.

Yes, but not now. I didn't bring all my notes back. Thanks...
