I installed the rtl8192eu linux drivers
sudo apt-get install git dkms build-essential
git clone https://github.com/jeremyb31/rtl8192eu-linux-driver.git
sudo dkms add ./rtl8192eu-linux-driver
sudo dkms install rtl8192eu/1.0
But it has not worked. How can it be fixed? The outcome of the wireless-info script can be found here
