Firmware Version: Ubuntu Linux 25.04

Hi! I am having some issues with properly installing the drivers (1st and 3rd party across 2 different adapters. For this specific one mentioned it is rtl8852au) on my Ubuntu computer. I have followed all readmes and none seem to work, this may be because I am not experienced with Linux, but I would still like some input some the TP-link community. How do I install the driver? Now granted, my computer cannot install certain commands such as "make", but I do not understand why.

hello@kerballias_iv ,

Welcome to our ocmmunity.

 

Could I confirm again the model of your adapter? Is it Archer TX30U Plus or Archer TX20U Plus?

Please note that both of their Supported operating systems include Windows 10, 11.

For more details, please refer to the spec of Archer TX30U Plus， Archer TX20U Plus.

  @kerballias_iv You’ll need to install build-essential first — run sudo apt install build-essential dkms git. Then clone the rtl8852au repo from GitHub and run make and sudo make install. Missing ‘make’ just means the compiler tools aren’t installed yet.
