I suggest you start by using the latest CentOS 7, 1810 (based on RHEL
7.6).  Anything older isn't supported and most likely won't work with
any 3rd-party kernel drivers.

Also, which wifi driver do you want?  There are many.  Try looking at
the output of 'lspci' to get hardware name.

Hi,


I use the wifi adaptor, Edimax AC1200, and its driver can be downloaded from
'http://www.edimax.com.tw/edimax/download/download/data/edimax/tw/download/for_home/wireless_adapters/wireless_adapters_ac1200_dual-band/ew-7822ulc'.


I fail to compile its GPL Source Code on CentOS 7.4.


Where to get its rpm drivers, or how to compile its GPL Source Code?


Thanks


Regards


Andrew
