So, I bought this DWA 525 Wireless Adapter about 15 months ago. First of all it's funny that most of the product stops working just after the warranty period. So does this adapter.
I tested the adapter under Windows as well as Ubuntu, but doesn't work in both of them. In Windows, it does get detected, but even after I install the drivers, there's no Wifi network to catch.
So I took the card our and shot a couple of pictures. Here are they:

Does it look that the gold area have been exposed to some carbon or something? Is that the reason it have stopped working? Can it be fixed?
