    Have you configured your password or pre-shared key on the USB Adapter?

    You must enter the default key password on your wifi adapter matching the security setup from your home network.
    Look also for an option to checkmark > Connect automatically when this network is in range.

      If there is an available option. This will usually detect your home network, correct preconfigured passwords and then connect.
