I have the Archer T3U Plus Wireless USB device. I am running

Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.4
OpenWrt 21.02.1 r16325-88151b8303 / LuCI openwrt-21.02 branch git-21.327.65561-7f37a58

I have installed kmod-rtw88, however not working. The device is picked when run lsusb

root@OpenWrt:/# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux 5.4.154 xhci-hcd xHCI Host Controller
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 2357:0138 Realtek 802.11ac NIC

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux 5.4.154 xhci-hcd xHCI Host Controller
root@OpenWrt:/#

however wlan1 not picked on ifconfig.

See below kernel messages on connection. (no assignment to wlan interface)

I would appreciate if a package was introduced for this chipset.

Thank you
