Wi-Fi Modules Not loading ?

[twin--turbo]

Ok fairly new to ARMBIAN.... Possibly 3 hrs in. 

 

I have it running on an MXQ media box, all fine but no wi-fi... 

 

Put in an old D-Link DWL-G122 usb stick and whilst it's recognised by the usb sub system no driver gets loaded.

 

I have installed armbian-firmware-full and there seems to be relevant firmware for the RALINK devices.  

 

but iwconfig does nothing and the device does not show up in "nmtui"

 

 

I have to admit it's probably 13-14 years since I had to manually do anything with a linux driver so I am rusty!

 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers
