Asus PCE-N53 Linux Driver for 3.x Kernel
# Asus PCE-N53 linux driver for kernel 3.x

When I bought this Wireless network card it wasn't working in Ubuntu 14.10 with kernel 3.16. Then I have found [patched driver](https://github.com/unused/patched-Asus-PCE-N53-linux-driver) here on GitHub that was tested with Fedora but I wasn't able to compile it on Ubuntu so I've decided to create this repository and provide working sources for Ubuntu users. The instructions were taken from [this superuser thread](http://superuser.com/questions/663190/asus-pce-n53-11n-n600-pci-e-adapter-on-3-x-kernel). There's nothing more.

## How to Install

Simply clone the repository, install build dependencies, compile sources, install compiled module and use modprobe to activate it.

```
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic linux-headers-$(uname -r)
$ cd ~
$ git clone https://github.com/mareksuscak/asus-pce-n53-linux.git
$ cd asus-pce-n53-linux
$ sudo make
$ sudo make install
$ sudo modprobe rt5592sta
```

If everything worked well you should be able to connect to the Wireless network now.
