(solved) TP-Link - Archer AC600 T2U Nano

{USB_DEVICE(0x2357, 0x011F), .driver_info = RTL8821}, /* TP-Link - Archer AC600 T2U Nano */
this from the https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au but neither of the 2 codebases work properly... if I hack your code with this

it matches, loads and gives me details... but an iw scan returns no networks

I'm testing with your code cuz the other repo/driver behaviour is pretty glitchy (lots of packet loss)

Hi @zeph

Good day to you.

This is an easy fix. I did not need the info you posted as I knew what the problem was from the title. This driver does not work on AC600 adapters. I need you to read issue 45. It will explain and take you to the correct repo.

You will need to run remove-driver.sh and delete the directory with this driver.

I can use your help. I have information posted in the README.md and a pinned issue (45) to help folks but I continue to have folks with the 8811au and 8821au chipsets (AC600) installing this driver. What can I do that will prevent this problem?

Thanks and regards

[zeph]

ok, thanks for the feedback @morrownr

Hi @zeph

I get the feeling that you did not read issue 45. In issue 45 I point users to the driver they should be using:

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

That driver is for adapters that use 8821au and 8811au chipsets. It is a very good driver (as far as Realtek drivers are concerned.) Please give it a try and let me know what the results are.
