Driver installed but device not listing any networks #1216
Comments
Same problem on Kali Linux. Tried many ways, and it looks like the driver's problem. Waiting for answers. |
I found one solution. Just don't use git clone. Run the following command and then reboot. Problem solved for me. sudo apt install realtek-rtl88xxau-dkms |
same problem |
helped for me
|
When you say don't use clone does this mean I have uninstall the drivers I got via github? |
The |
I think, same problem I have been facing.
|
worked like a charm! tnx |
This is not working my case....
I think realtek-rtl88xxau-dkms is quite an old module. That is why I can't seem to find it in Ubuntu24. |
I believe you can install on Ubuntu by sudo apt install rtl8812au-dkms |
@legendPerceptor Thanks for your help. But since I am a root user, I didn't think there was any difference between having the apt and not having it.... I was able to install it, but my USB Wifi did not work. Unfortunately.

This worked for me to get my Netgear A6100 AC600 DB Wireless adapter to show "Visible networks" in Ubuntu 24.04 in the Wi-Fi section of Ubuntu's settings GUI. I believe the critical step below is the "git reset --hard 63cf0b4" step, but I listed all the steps I took anyhow. Unplug the Wi-Fi USB dongle. Restart the computer. Restart the computer. Restart the computer. Note that when I run the command "dkms status", I have somehow from trying other things also ended up with "realtek-rtl88xxau/5.6.4.2~20240509: added", but I don't think that matters, and I'm going to ignore it. The part that seems relevant is that the "dkms status" command is showing "8812au/5.6.4.2_35491.20192025, 6.8.0-51-generic, x86_64: installed" as the other line of output from the command. |
I have also tried this way, but I get the following error Do you have any errors like this?
|
Fixed it for me on arch 6.12.4-arch1-1. |
This also worked for me. I tried it many times before with different manuals, but this finaly works. Thanks. |
Can confirm this works for me too (finally). Combination of Raspotify/Debian (kernel panics or DKMS crashes on Ubuntu 24), commit 63cf0b4, nmcli/NetworkManager, rebooting and plugging in dongle. |
Had the same issue on OpenSuse Leap 15.6 (==Kernel 6.4, gcc 7.5). Dropping back to commit 63cf0b4 worked, plus doing some local changes to get the driver to compile as follows: -#if (LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(6, 7, 0)) Just in case someone is finding themselves in the same boat... |
Resetting to the above commit hash worked for me. Here's my distro and kernel info:

|
Yes, I see the same error in
|
Thank you for your reply. |
I tried resolving the error below in my own way, but it’s not perfect. |
I tried resolving the error below in my own way for this 2607850607, but it’s not perfect. |
63cf0b4 works for 2.4Ghz Does anybody else also have the issue that 5Ghz networks are still not displayed? |
I am using Ubuntu 24.04 on a macbook, therefore my kernel is
6.6.62-1-t2-noble
I have installed the drivers according to the instructions and the device appears in the UI of Ubuntu as also in the output of
iwconfig
commandHowever as you can see in the screenshot it does not list any networks.
The scan command with the interface name fails as well
What might be the issue?
