TP-Link TL-WN725N not recognized

Just wanted to let everyone know my expiernce with this and how I got it to work. It mostly worked out of the box except for using the menu driven expiernce. Upon logging in I tried the menu to do a scan and it crashed as stated above. After doing this I did a sudo ifconfig and noticed it's showing wlan0 so I knew it found the dongle. I then just modified the /etc/network/interfaces file to include my wireless information and rebooted. This is where it got a little weird, it then gave me an IP address on the wireless card(good) but then I noticed it was also giving my eth0 an IP address even though no cable was plugged in, to further the weirdness I was getting some odd IP's in the /etc/resolv.conf so I couldnt get out to the internet. I ended up fixing this by just bringing down eth0 in the interfaces file and rebooting and then it worked like a champ. Hope this helps some people.[/align]
