TP-Link Archer AC1300 T4U Setup

[sydreamer]

Hi,

I just finished a fresh installation of Ubuntu 20.04 and have been trying to get my USB Wi-FI Adapter (TP-Link AC1300 T4U v3) to work.

After following a number of guides, I believe I have managed to install the device, but am unable to enable it and use it.

I am currently using my android device as a usb tether to access the internet so I could setup the adapter.

Thank you in advance for the help.

The TP-LINK AC1300 T4U v3 has a Realtek 8812BU chipset, apparently. Please confirm with 'lsusb'.
That being the case then https://askubuntu.com/questions/1079...ltek-rtl8812bu

Managed to solve it through the guide, though I had to navigate the github to find the most recent version.

Thanks for the help.
