Hi everyone, after trying for multiple hours I’m here asking for guidance, I tried multiple posts from hee and SO but none works.
(see debug info on bottom)
I have a USB wifi adapter (TP Link Archer T4U / AC 1300 / High Gain Wireless MU-MIMO) and it does not work or turn on the light with my Majaro. I tried another USB adapter and it worked fine.
I already tried switching kernel to 5.12 and 5.4, installing headers and retrying a couple of tutorials, but nothing made the network list even show.
NOTE: For the output bellow I only used the T4U and not the other one, the internet I’m using is from cable
The tutorial I followed was (from archive install-rtl8812au-dkms-git-driver/52343/3 and t/third-party-wifi-driver-issues/34010) but it did not work either, none of the steps helped me.
Also, the adapter is working fine on two Windows 10 machines.
