URL to this issue bellow
I have tried almost every driver github has to download for this particular chipset.
I have successfully gotten the wifi adapter to work on the same pc but with Kali linux and Ubuntu
4. How did you get this error? Are there any steps to procedure it?
git clone the drivers, some simply run: make, sudo make install, sudo reboot
some of the downloads from github go through a dkms process which all look similar to this:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y dkms git bc
git clone https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU.git
cd RTL8812BU
VER=$(sed -n ‘s/\PACKAGE_VERSION="(.*)"/\1/p’ dkms.conf)
sudo rsync -rvhP ./ /usr/src/rtl88x2bu-${VER}
sudo dkms add -m rtl88x2bu -v ${VER}
sudo dkms build -m rtl88x2bu -v ${VER}
sudo dkms install -m rtl88x2bu -v ${VER}
sudo modprobe 88x2bu
sudo reboot
have gotten any errors, have been able to install all the drivers that I have tried on the system just fine the issue is that once they are and I reboot the adapter still isnt being recognized at all
