8821au-20210708 VS rtl88x2bu

Did that. Followed it to here https://github.com/morrownr/8821au-20210708. Installed it. Did not work.

i'm not a fedora user, but this github repo: https://github.com/morrownr/8821au-20210708

git clone https://github.com/morrownr/8821au-20210708.git

However I attempted to switch to Ubuntu 22.10 yesterday. Didn't go so well because my computer uses a wireless adapter that probably isn't really popular. It's a Realtek Wireless Adapter 8811CU with 5ghz and 2.4ghz connectivity. There isn't much driver support and I found a few repos to help add drivers. All the repos I tested were outdated with the current kernel for Ubuntu 22.10. (Kernel is 5.19). I found one repo, but the internet connection is extremely slow. Click for repo. So I ended up going to bed that day and waited tomorrow to probably switch back to Windows or use a lighter version of Windows like tiny11.

I am not sure what drivers you used, but these seem to be the latest for that device. https://github.com/morrownr/8821au-20210708 That URL also mentions some settings to check on your Router, and even then that driver site suggests you dont use the That device.

What is device id from lsusb output? It may be wrong chipset. Also you can try this one

Try this one

I installed it on a new empty ssd. It automatically installed some drivers but it couldn't detect the wifi adapter so I manually installed these drivers from github. Other than that, I've only installed a few stuff for my university courses and discord. I'm not sure but I think the issue started when I installed the drivers.

To me this sounds either like bad drivers or bad hardware. There is a reasonably easy way to rule out drivers; test it in linux. Unfortunately this card is not supported by the kernel, however there are drivers available on github. You can test this in a "Live Linux" environment, where you do not have to install it to disk, all you should need is a USB stick and some patience.

Given that a T3500 didn't come with WiFi back in 2011, I'm guessing this is a USB network adapter. Maybe try this github repo. https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2bu

git clone https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2bu.git

https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2bu Seems like you have to compile these drivers to get the adapter working. I also have a TP-Link wifi adaptor and TP-Link doesn't support the newer Linux kernels and they haven't added it to the Linux kernel by default so it's a bit of a pain to get this working. But if you can figure it out and get it working congrats lol

Is the relevant information... The issue is the rtl88x2bu driver that is built-in to the kernel... It isn't very good. You could consider an alternative driver like https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2bu using these instructions.

If you are running Kali bare metal or if you have allowed USB pass through then it is most likely a driver issue. Take a look at this repo.

You'd first need to tether your laptop to your phone, then install the kernel headers (sudo pacman -S linux-headers), choose the one that matches your kernel version. Then install this driver. It's in the AUR. Make sure you get the one that says "DKMS" on it.
