Hello,
Recently purchased a TP-Link TX20U Plus;
Archer TX20U Plus | AX1800 Dual Antennas High Gain Wireless USB Adapter | TP-Link Malaysia
it is using the following chipset:
Realtek 8832AU
When I plugged it in it was identified (using "lsusb") as:
0bda:1a2b
When googling it I found this:
(9) Archer TX20U Plus driver for Linux : TpLink (reddit.com)
which lead me to this:
GitHub - lwfinger/rtl8852au
which in turn made me download "usb-modeswitch"-package from the OpenWRT GUI.
After installing the package (and possible rebooting) it now identifies as:
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 2357:013f Realtek 802.11ac WLAN Adapter
Ok great but when running:
cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices
among the output is:
T: Bus=05 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 2 Spd=480 MxCh= 0

E: Ad=0b(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 512 Ivl=0ms
E: Ad=0c(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 512 Ivl=0ms
So no driver is loaded.
According to this:
GitHub - lwfinger/rtl8852au
I need to build the driver, I am trying to figure out how to do this ON (when SSH:ed onto my OpenWRT device - NanoPi R4S) my OpenWRT.
Any pointers?
