Once you have the firmware loader in place (or if you aren't sure and you just want to try things to see if it works), you need to install the firmware file into the appropriate location. The steps for installing and configuring this are very distribution specific and the tools differ, but distributions have this enabled.

In addition to having the firmware_class support in your kernel, you must also have a working userspace infrastructure configured. You can determine if your kernel currently has firmware loader support by looking for the No hardware problems here since 2013 when I last had to compile Ralink RT2870/RT3070 wifi dongle drivers in Slackware. the based-on-Slackware 'Slacko' variant of Puppy Linux has hit version 7.0. Some other distro/dongle combinations work as well, for example Linux Mint 17.3 'Rosa' - KDE (32-bit)/ASUS USB-N53 seems to work flawlessly (as reported by Roland Bauer). News and feature lists of Linux and BSD distributions. When you configure the kernel, you can find this option in the following location: The driver is mostly tested on 64 bit Ubuntu 15.10 and Debian 8.3 with NETGEAR AC1200 High Gain Wifi USB Adapter. In order to function correctly the driver requires this to be enabled in your kernel. More information can be found under in the Documentation/firmware_class/README file in the kernel source.

The driver loads the firmware using the kernel's firmware_class infrastructure. If that doesn't work, or you need newer firmware, read on.? Note that many distributions ship the firmware, you could install the “linux-firmware” package or similar. The firmware necessary to support the devices is distributed separately under the firmware license.
