Archer T2U Plus driver for Linux Ubuntu/Rasbian
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I just got a TpLink Archer T2U Plus, the one with the big antenna. Works well on windows without any installataion, however I couldn’t get it working on my Linux Ubuntu 19.10. with Kernel 5.3.0-24-generic system.
Is there any official or unofficial driver which I can use for Linux (not just Ubuntu but Raspbian as well)?
I would really appreciate your input.
Meanwhile, I asked the same question at AskUbuntu and received the solution for this problem.
Since the T2u Plus has a Realtek rtl8812au Wifi chip, it’s easy to install a driver for it.
Whoever has the same issue with his T2U Plus Wifi dongle please see the solution or check the instructions below.
***UPDATE 09.08.2021***
Installation on Ubuntu 20.04 or Linux Mint 20.2:
Open the terminal and execute the following commands :
1. Update the package information :
sudo apt install dkms git
3. Install Build Dependencies :
sudo apt install build-essential libelf -dev linux -headers-$( uname -r)
4. Download the Driver files using git :
git clone https://github.com/ aircrack -ng/rtl8812au.git
5. Navigate to the Downloaded directory :
if the installation is aborted , execute this command »’sudo dkms remove 8812au/5.6.4.2_35491.20191025 —all»’ , if errors pop up »’Usage: remove / —all»’
