I have a laptop with Ubuntu 20.04. I can connect to my main WIFI signal, but cannot connect to TP Link WiFi extender. The same laptop with Windows 10 (dual boot) works fine. Other devices like tablets, ipads or phones are connected to this extender normally. Only in Ubuntu 20.04 is the problem. Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

I think this worked on the previous Linux versions, but with the new version, the dongle just doesn't get recognized. From the drivers offered on TP-Link's page, there is a Linux installation guide which doesn't seem to be working.

Anyone has any ideas if there's a way I can make this work? I have the feeling it has something to do with the new kernel...

I have troubles installing drivers for my TP-LINK Archer T3U on Ubuntu 18.04.

Having found out the device ID 2357:012d, I used this repo by @Jeremy31.

Namely, I downloaded the content, cd'ed into it, did make and make install.

What to do next?

sudo dkms add ./rtl8822bu

gives

Error! Could not find module source directory.
Directory: /usr/src/.-rtl8822bu does not exist.

How to properly install the driver?

I recently acquired the TP-LINK Archer T3U. I tried several solutions, but it still does not work. I tried with https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2BU_WiFi_linux_v5.3.1_27678.20180430_COEX20180427-5959/ and https://github.com/jeremyb31/

Results of sudo lshw -class network :

Today I have updated Ubuntu version from 16.04 LTS to 18.04 LTS. After that Ubuntu doesn't recognized my Wi-Fi driver. Kindly support to solve this problem. Thank you.
