Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation? i plugged in the usb realtek adapter to my
pc hoping to connect to internet via wifi. But this device is not recognized.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

lsusb -d 0bda:f179 -v  ----------> shows the following

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:f179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188FTV
802.11b/g/n 1T1R 2.4G WLAN Adapter
Device Descriptor:
  bLength                18
  bDescriptorType         1
  bcdUSB               2.00
  bDeviceClass            0
  bDeviceSubClass         0
  bDeviceProtocol         0
  bMaxPacketSize0        64

  bcdDevice            0.00
  iManufacturer           1 Realtek
  iProduct                2 802.11n
  iSerial                 3 002E2D5AF615
  bNumConfigurations      1

How ever "lshw -c network" does not show the wireless interface for this
device.
Device is not recognized. So, it can't be used for wifi connections.

   * What was the outcome of this action? Device not recognized
   * What outcome did you expect instead? Wireless network interface to show up
on my pc and enable me to connect to wifi network.
