Cansomeone can help me do this, I have found some old answers here but they both don't work , and I tried to install the drivers from offical asus site with drivers for Linux, but I'm not quite sure how to execute them, can someone please help me out...
Asus provides a driver package with step by step instructions for installing on Linux at -IoT-Servers/Adapters/All-series/USB-AC68/HelpDesk_Download/.If those don't work for you, your best bet would be to contact Asus support or the vendor who sold you that device as Ubuntu compatible.
Alternatively, update your question with specific information at which step of those instructions you are encountering a problem and how the problem manifests itself. Be sure to include the exact wording of any error message you get.
This is really frustrating as I just bought my asus USB-AC68 and I cannot seem to find the right drivers for this one! Help would be appreciated as I've been looking around for hours now... Lsusb command returns ID 0b05:1817 for my wifi usb (as it is the only Asusteks in the list...)
I just got this thing in the mail today. Bought it because someone in the comments said "plugged it in to linux and it worked right out of the box. Definitely not true. soo... tried Pilot6's solution, but it didn't work for me. Spent the last few hours digging. Long story short, found this other project by the same guy on github
at this point I clicked the panel wifi icon and had two adapters. turned off the internal one (laptop) and connected with the new one. The adapter name was blank when typing in the password. Just ran
speedtest.net and pulled 188 down and 53 up (Mbps). Was pulling about 45 down and 15 up before the new adapter. Hope this helps!
The ASUS USB-AC68 is the latest USB network adapter to come from the labs at ASUS. This solution gives support for 600 Mbps over 2.4GHz and 1300 Mbps on 5GHz. The antennas that are built into this latest design that seems to build off a gaming feel, similar to what you get with the spaceship AC5300 router from ASUS. The interface of choice for this solution is USB 3.0 and packaging does include a desktop extender.
Removing the cap, we have the USB 3.0 connection. Also, notice the V groove in the plastic housing that enables the cap to fit snugly while also seating the adapter in the desktop extender included in the package.
The ASUS USB-AC68 certainly is one of the best looking adapters on the market. Going off that gaming look, ASUS has styled this solution right alongside its high-end gaming routers. Build quality is quite good, but I would caution that the antennas are connected by very thin plastic, so it's very important to be careful when manipulating them.
Performance for 2.4GHz is on par with current market standards. I was able to reach 132 Mbps in testing while moving over to 5GHz, the AC68 was able to reach 434 Mbps, second only to its PCIe counterpart. That's rather impressive.
As far as software is concerned, the driver package is minimal for this solution at least for Windows 10. I installed just the driver and let Windows manage the connections and had no issues in use. For those wanting to use this on a desktop PC, you may find issues with the width of this device blocking adjacent USB ports, and if that is an issue, you will want to use the included extension. Other than that, this is a device to consider.

Hi!
Did someone succseeded to recompile aircrack-ng rtl8812au driver for Openwrt?
Because my usb adapter with driver from openwrt x86 packadge can only scan networks, but cannot to connect anywhere. Master or clienr mode does not work.
What's the status here? I have a
0bda:8812 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8812AU 802.11a/b/g/n/ac 2T2R DB WLAN Adapter,
which is actually an AWUS036ACH.
Didn't really get it to work on my Raspberry Pi Model B Rev 2 running OpenWrt v21.02.3. I read about patching and compiling, but was not convinced it works well enough to be worth it - with the necessity of figuring out what patch and driver to actually use, and of compile and host my own kmods and all (I'm not afraid of it - ran recent OpenWrt versions on my TP-Link MR3420v2 for years, which required both compilation and extroot).
The adapter seems to work in AP-mode on another Raspberry Pi Model B Rev 2 running Void Linux (with rpi-kernel-5.10.110 and the packaged rtl8812au-dkms-20210427_1). I use that as an AP in bridge mode for now. I wonder how far off making the adapter work in OpenWrt can be, considering that it seems to work in a very similar environment (I know that the kernel in the latest stable OpenWrt is one LTS-version lower).
I'm able to see the USB device, but as soon as I scan for a network, I see a kernel error and Luci crashes.
Do I need to install a different driver or patch the one installed?
Using Debian, I use the aircrack-ng rtl8812au drivers flawlessly.
Thank you!
Purchasing wireless equipment can be a bit tricky, as there is a chance any off-the-shelf adaptor (especially the latest models) won't work out of the box (due to no driver being in the kernel/repositories) or even worse... it has a chipset that isn't even supported at all!
So if you've got a 5 GHz / 2.4 GHz router and in need of something that can reliably transmit through 2 floors in a house while sustaining decent speeds to the network - this 2016 adaptor is a good candidate:
Wikidevi is very helpful in identifying whether a driver is in the upstream kernel (e.g. works out of the box), or if there is or isn't a known driver that will allow the device to work.
This driver has DKMS support which will save headaches later. This is so the driver can be re-compiled when the kernel is updated, otherwise the device would stop working when you update your system.
Things are starting to get frustratingly buggy. If I disconnect and reconnect to the network, I'd have a considerable amount of loss packets - which causes pages to stop loading. A ping test to the router confirms this.
I'd highly recommend looking for hardware that have support in the kernel, even if that means deeper searching to find a dual-band adapter. It's been solid when it works, but for now, I'll be switching to Powerline Ethernet adapters.
