    You need to get and install the driver for your wireless adapter from PC manufacturer's site.

    Hi - thanks for the replies.

    The PC is custom built, however the USB adapter in question is the TP Link Archer T2U (link in OP)

    This has been resolved now, managed to find the actual board it's running and downloaded the drivers direct from the manufacturer.
