As written in the Kernel4.9 Threat:

My USB-Wlan "Edimax EW7612 UAn V2" are seen with lsusb but Debian9 with Kernel 4.8.8 dont activate it.
No errors are reported. I think its not compatible with the Driver for Realtek RTL8192CU/RTL8188CU.
Its not a real Problem.

Ubuntu 16.10 cannot boot with 4.8.8 but with 4.9.rc5.

Graphics are RadeonHD5450 4GB Ram and 2 Sata-HDDs (AOS4 + Debian9 + Ubuntu16.10) and one with Fedora25.

Many thanks for testing! Your (L)Ubuntu 16.10 should boot with the stable kernel 4.8.8 because ubuntu MATE 17.04 boots on my X1000 without any problems. I don't know what the problem is.

Could you please update your Lubuntu 16.10?

The V2 of EW-7612UAn is based on the RTL8192SU chipset. It seems it works with the driver 8712u. (see ubuntuforums.org)

Kernel driver: Realtek RTL8712 USB device. I will add this driver to the RC6 of kernel 4.9.
