Auto Enable Hotplug USB WIFI

Introduce how to automatically enable the pluggable USB WIFI module when computer boots up. I realized that my problem was not really solved. Therefore, this page should not be posted.

Steps

  1. Run sudo ifconfig to get the interface name of the USB WIFI module.

    Example

  2. Create a file named usb_wifi (you can use other names) in the /etc/network/interfaces.d directory and add the following to it. Note that interface-name must be replaced with the interface name obtained in step 1.
    allow-hotplug <interface-name>

    Example
