hello all,
i've the following distro:
Linux nas 4.19.0-0.bpo.5-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.37-4~bpo9+1 (2019-06-19) x86_64 GNU/Linux
after a long time i've finally found a working driver (at least compiling and installing)
https://github.com/minjae/rtl8821au.git
i can see the usb device:
root@nas:~/rtl8821au# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:b812 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
but i can only see the ethernet interface

Re: unable to install usb wifi adapter
Have you changed the sources.list to add contrib and non-free?

Re: unable to install usb wifi adapter
I think that is the wrong driver for your device. Try this one - https://github.com/jeremyb31/rtl8822buemiliocb4 wrote:after a long time i've finally found a working driver (at least compiling and installing)
https://github.com/minjae/rtl8821au.git
And you may also need to install the package firmware-realtek from non-free repo.

Re: unable to install usb wifi adapter
This has got a bit beyond my pay grade so I hoped a network expert would weigh in. Couple of ideas though: what do you get with this command?
Or if you have sudo set up:
Code: Select all
su -
<enter root password>
rfkill list
Code: Select all
sudo 'rfkill list'

Re: unable to install usb wifi adapter
Solved. The issue were related the gateway, because the wifi interface were unable to write its own route to the routing table. So i shutdown the eth interface and usinf only the wifi all works fine.
thanks
