Re: USB wifi adapter detected as USB Ethernet
Your ID pairing is 2001:3319. Unfortunately this device is not supported in the current kernel. Fortunately, the current upstream (kernel.org) kernel seems to have the driver (rtl8xxxu). Can you try installing ELRepo's kernel-ml and see if your device works?
