TP-Link AC600 Archer T2U Plus driver for Ubuntu 20.04

ca flag

I am looking for a driver for the TP-Link AC600 Archer T2U Plus, on Uubuntu 20.04 (kernel version 5.11.0-40-generic).

$ lsusb
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 2357:0120 TP-Link 802.11ac WLAN Adapter

$ inxi -N | grep "TP-Link"
  Device-2: TP-Link 802.11ac WLAN Adapter type: USB driver: usb-network

I installed a driver and it worked for the first time, when I opened the coputer today, the adaptater doesn't give me any Wi-Fi network.

Install the driver again. If you didn't use dkms, you need to install it after each kernel upgrade.

I resolve it. I reinstalled the driver with this commands:

sudo apt install git dkms
git clone https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au.git
cd rtl8812au
sudo make dkms_install

If you don't hace permission try to execute:

chmod 777 rtl8812au

I'm facing the same problem as op and using `chmod 777 rtl8812au` command didn't help. The connection is wiped out after i restart my computer. Also I can't connect to the 5Ghz band. How to connect to 5Ghz with T2U plus?

I had to fight a lot to find a usefull solution and a found some that I don't remeber. The last one I did was starting the process from 0. I mean to remove dkms and git and then follow the same commands again. Try with sudo apt remove dkms git.

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.
