Troubleshooting • I can't make the PiHut Wifi USB adapter work

$

Hello folks,

I've a couple of old RaspberryPi (freshly installed): a Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+ and a Raspberry Pi 2 model B.

Both are running latest Raspbian OS lite. Both are working fine with an Edimax Wifi USB adapter. None of them seems to work with The PiHut Wifi Adapter.

Here are some information I collected:

iwconfig

Code:

The RaspberryPi can't find any wifi (I've two available and both of them works if I use the Edimax wifi adapter).

Please note: I've two of these PiHut USB adapter and none of them works.

What am I doing wrong? These adapters are "supposed" to work with RaspberryPi but they don't.

Thank you so much for your help.
