Hi,

In general, in order for a USB device to be recognized, your specific
device details have to be added to a devices list and the driver. While
I see someone else has already responded who's indicated it's not such
a simple matter with your specific device, adding the details is the
minimum required. (You reminded me I wanted to submit a PR to do this
for another WiFi USB device, which is working for me:
