If you are actually using Xenialpup 7.5 and not Xenialpup64 7.5
This is the pet you need to install.

I will assume this is a frugal install of Xenialpup 7.5I did a clean install of Puppy xenial 7.5 to a hard drive.
If yes.
You need to shutdown and make a save.
Reboot using the save.
Download the pet package and install it by left clicking on the pet.
Reboot so the pet install is saved in the save.
It should now work.
This is my wNA1100 in Xenialpup 7.5 after installing the pet package.
It uses the ath9k_htc driver.
Look in Pup-Sysinfo>Devices>USB Devices>Summary
