Install RTL8812AU Wireless Adapter Driver

Introduction

This driver works for my EDUP-Link usb adapter, I installed several times and each time I spent long time on finding the instruction. So it’s time to record the process.

Steps:

  1. Must have the computer connected to Internet using wire.
  2. Download the source file of the rtl 8812au driver by git.
      git clone https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au.git
    
  3. Go to the directory of the file.
      cd rtl8812au
    
  4. Make and install the driver
      make -j8
      sudo make install
    
  5. Reboot the system
      reboot
