I figured out the utility of RTL8812AU driver for RTL8811AU chipset. You may try installing dkms (dynamic kernel module) of that driver by the command sudo apt install rtl8812au-dkms

Try this - for me it helped:

sudo dkms remove rtl8812au/5.7.0 --all
sudo dkms remove 8812au/5.6.4.2_35491.20191025 --all
sudo dkms remove 8812au/5.9.3.2_37279.20201012 --all

Then you can install the package with following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kelebek333/kablosuz/ubuntu focal main"
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 23E50C670722A6D9
sudo apt update
sudo apt install rtl8812au-dkms

Linux 5.10+

(Debian Bullseye and Ubuntu Focal onwards)

currently requires a patched version of the rtl8812au driver. It worked for me on Debian and you may use that modified version as long as no "official" solutions are available.

You can download it from here* and it will appear in $ sudo dkms status as module 8812au version 4.2.3. Load it using $ sudo modprobe 8812au and after a few seconds your card should appear. Don't trust the reported connection quality, go near your router and if it does not connect automatically, reconfigure the connection manually. The driver will be recompiled automatically when a new kernel is installed but check if the connection works with the new kernel before removing the old ones.

*unofficial/unstable, do not use in production. Instructions included in the readme.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
