A6210 wifi driver for Ubuntu

Hi, I have installed Ubuntu 18.04 latest vesrion. I have a Netgear A6210 wifi adaptor and Ubuntu just doesnt recognize it.

After searching through blogs it states there are no drivers. Its the chipset that I need to look for. However I still see others saying it doesnt fucnction on Ubuntu well and to buy another wifi adaptor.

Why is Netgear not capitalizing on the Linux revolution and why has canocial not bothered to do a joint venture to generate more sales and support of Netgear products. Seems like whole lot of money being flushed down the drain.

So am I able to install my driver or do I forget Netgear products in Future???
