plugged it in and a blue light started flashing which has never happened

and Bob's your father's brother! Technically my granddad but I digress!
You sir are a genius, and a very very patient one at that! Thank you
ever so much, I really needed a win in /something/ of late... this is
brilliant!
Finally! I'm not that smart chief or I would have got it right first
time haha. Over the next day or two watch it like a hawk for reliability
of course but you'll certainly notice if it's flaky I imagine. Is it on
the 5GHz channel instead of 2.4GHz? After all that, what does this give
you now:
* nmcli device status BLAH
where blah is the newly assigned interface name.
Now let's hide this thread quickly in case any Windows fans see it and
start laughing at us. "Linux is totally ready for anyone to use,
supports hardware out of the box!"
Glorious victory one crappy USB adaptor at a time...
