Need to connect to WiFi through USB adapter on fresh install

I'm trying to connect my old server (Ubuntu Server ver 22.04) to WiFi. I recently moved house, and my internet access changed. At my old apartment I had easy access to an ethernet port. However, at my new place I don't this anymore, so I need to use a WiFi adapter (an old Netgear WNDA3100).
I can't see the adapter on in /sys/class/net and the solutions I've seen online are to clone various git repos and run modprobe, but I don't have internet access to clone.
I've also tried to set up my /etc/netplan/00-installer-config.yaml in the mean time by adding

wifis:   enp0s31f6:     access-points:       WIFI-SSID:         password: pass     dhcp4: true

But sudo netplan apply fails with subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['systemctl', 'start', 'netplan-wpa-wlan0.service']' returned non-zero exit status 1
I'm currently working off the assumption this fail is because of the network can't be reached.

Can I get my machine setup in the state it's in now? Or do I need to move the server into the utility closet?
Thanks!
