rtl8821cu wifi adapter doesn't work
Hi everyone! My rtl8821cu wifi adapter doesn't work on Artix Linux (runit). I've installed this driver via dkms, I also tried to install rtl8821cu-dkms-git package from AUR but it still doesn't work.

Linux is the best operating system. Move from Windows 11 to Linux!
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 All the repos I tested were outdated with the current kernel for Ubuntu 22.10.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.

Cannot get Wi-Fi or Ethernet working for the life of me.
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.

Ubuntu 20.04 keeps crushing and sometimes won't even boot
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.
