How to solve the problem where TP-Link's TP-WN823N would fail to connect to the network even with the driver installed?

My system is Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS, and I'm having problems related to the wifi USB mentioned above. Before installing the driver, re-plugging the device would solve the problem until the next reboot.

Then, I've followed the instructions in this repository (https://github.com/Mange/rtl8192eu-linux-driver), which after a reboot, worked for a few days, then stopped. Wireless only worked again when I restarted the router, which enabled temporary internet access for this desktop for a few hours. Sometimes, on rare occurrences, the network manager would report status as having internet access, but there isn't (I've tested this). This is the picture of it.

I had wiped Windows 10 to install Ubuntu and this is the only error I have. Other devices can connect to the network normally, without the need to reboot the router. I've found a way to generate a diagnostic for my network problem (My wireless/WiFi connection does not work. What information is needed to diagnose the issue?). This is the wifi status file I generated from that Ask Ubuntu thread (https://pastebin.com/CwAyt2zJ). The Redmi network device you see in the diagnostic is my Redmi phone which I use as a USB tether for this desktop. I've gone through many question thread in this community and none solved my issue.

If you ask about the Wifi status when I boot the live Ubuntu USB, it worked fine without any interruptions. I don't know how different is the driver structure between the Live USB Ubuntu and Ubuntu in my computer hard drive. I do know that some maintenance software such as GParted are available out-of-the-box on the Live USB.

I appreciate any help. Thanks for helping!

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.
