aircrack 5ghz network monitoring not working with AWUS036ACM
I ended up returning AWUS036ACM and buying AWUS1900 (based on Realtek chipset). Installed appropriate drivers https://github.com/morrownr/8814au and everything is working as expected! No issues so far. Working on both the Kali virtual machine and the raw Debian machine. Lesson learned - stay away from Mediatek.

Tp-Link Archer T2U
I have same and got it to work using this driver on Github. The thing u/LoveFOSS recommended didn't work for me at all, but ymmv.

Configuring a Local AP with an external NIC (AWUS1900)
I'm trying to setup a local mumble server which clients can connect to over wifi, all provided by my AWUS1900 network card. I've gotten to the point where the NIC works with these instructions, and I setup a local AP following these instructions, but I cannot see the Mumble server running on the Pi3. I am able to connect to the hotspot but I can't ping any devices including the host of the whole server, strangely. When the pi is connected to ethernet to my local network, the mumble server works however.

Are there any USB WiFi dongles that work with Fluidd?
However, if you're after long range or high speed with the Pi, and don't mind having to custom build a driver, I have this TP-Link Archer T9UH with the Realtek RTL8814au chipset. It needs this driver, which I was able to build by following the instructions on that page. It works like a champ, until there's a new kernel release, in which case it breaks until I rebuild that driver. It does however offer USB3 and 11ac, and has no trouble connecting and maintaining a high speed link (100+mbps) between where it lives in my RV parked in the driveway, and the AP in the back bedroom of my house. This is enough distance where the onboard Pi4 wifi could barely see my network and couldn't even sustain megabit speeds reliably.

AWUS1900 wireless adapter problem
I would recommend trying https://github.com/morrownr/8814au this driver, but honestly, the driver and that hardware are trash in terms of Linux support, and I’d highly recommend getting something from https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi/blob/main/The_Short_List.md
- RTL8812au monitor mode, poor results

Pop Os Kernel 5.16 fixed lenovo legion 5 wifi driver
It made no sense as to why it was scanning, it's my desktop adapter and only has to connect to a singular network. Anyway i figured it might've been due to roaming so i went and reinstalled the driver i use (i use an adapter with the rtl8814au chip and use this driver: https://github.com/morrownr/8814au), just to be sure i manually set the BSSID in the network settings.

A Reckless Guide to OpenBSD
dkms helps with keeping a module working across Linux kernel upgrades (I use RTL8812AU, but RTL8814AU is problematic [1] being broken. I also use dkms + ZFS on Proxmox and Ubuntu), but other than that don't upgrade Linux kernel, unless you have to. I guess OpenBSD doesn't include the binary blobs, but back in the days (about 10-15 years ago) I used to have a stable WLAN on OpenBSD, on a Soekris. This was 802.11n (later rebranded WiFi 4), I don't now about 802.11ac / WiFi 5. Worked perfectly fine. IIRC it was either Atheros or IWL.

Wifi adapter not working on fedora 35
The driver hasn't been updated yet to support your Linux kernel version. Any one below 5.9 is okay, so you should downgrade to 5.4 as that the latest Long Term Support kernel below that.

Has anyone been able to make this work? Before 21.04 release, I was using this method and it worked, but not anymore.
