Hello!
Welcome to Linux Lite.
Sadly for your situation, it will auto-install at every startup, because support for the offending wireless chipset is built into the Linux kernel itself. You can try not turning it on until after you boot, to see what happens. I imagine, though, that the kernel would once again auto-detect it.
Unless someone's written something to 'switch off' selective parts of the kernel, I'm afraid that to uninstall the offending driver, you would have to:
Get the source code for the kernel (easy enough),
then remove the offending driver(s) from the kernel source,
find and remove anything ELSE in the kernel that calls on those drivers to be there,
and then compile the modified kernel source into your own custom kernel.
Additionally, you would have to repeat that whole process every time the kernel is updated. Sorry for all the bad news.
I run a second wireless router here as a repeater, also. Keep in mind that going through any repeater or other 'range booster' will cut your data speed to half that of the primary router...
