Ubuntu 18.04.1 - TP-LINK UE330 Ver: 2.0 driver problem

I just buy a new USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter and I can't install it in Ubuntu 18.04.1 server x64 edition.

I contact tp-link support and they send me the driver. I install the driver but my adapter is still without Internet connection. I follow this steps too and without any success.

Anyone can help me to fix this issue?

EDIT:

The name of the file that is in the /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml

CONTENT of /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml

 # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # For more information, see netplan(5). network: version: 2 renderer: networkd ethernets: enp19s0: dhcp4: yes

Thank you in advance.

Try this...

In terminal...

cd /etc/netplan # change directory

sudo cp 01-netcfg.yaml 01-netcfg.HOLD # backup the file

sudo pico 01-netcfg.yaml # edit the file

replace what you see there with this...

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# For more information, see netplan(5).
network: version: 2 renderer: networkd ethernets: enp19s0: dhcp4: yes optional: true enx503eaa8b183c: dhcp4: yes optional: true

then...

sudo netplan generate # generate the config files

sudo netplan apply # apply the new configuration

reboot # reboot the system

review the previous lshw and ifconfig commands to check operation.

I had a similar issue and got the card working by doing this:

sudo ip l s dev enx503eaa8b183c up

On 18.04.3 here, with a TP-Link TG-3468. I had to do the following:

sudo ip l s dev enp6s0 up

Then I modified /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml to look like this:

network: version: 2 renderer: NetworkManager ethernets: enp6s0: match: macaddress: "12:34:56:78:90:12" set-name: enp6s0 dhcp4: true dhcp-identifier: mac critical: true nameservers: addresses: ["<LAN IP address of router>"]

Then

sudo netplan --debug generate
sudo netplan apply
sudo reboot
