Ihave purchased the Tp-link T55E AX3000 adapter, I am trying to install the wifi drivers but it tells me the following error: "one or more problems caused the installation to fail. Please resolve these problems and try the installation again." I have only managed to install the bluetooth...

To do that go to Intel's driver download webpage and select "Intel PROSet/Wireless Software and Drivers for IT Admins". From there download the correct *.zip file for your Windows version, then extract the downloaded *.zip file to a folder on your hard disk.


Edit: I have found the link, I have downloaded the one compatible with my operating system (Windows 10 64 bits), I go to the device manager, I go to the unknown device (which is actually the TX55E) I try to install the driver from the folder that I have unzipped the .zip and it says: "Windows could not install your unknown device. Windows cannot find drivers for the device. If you know who made the device. Look for information about drivers to download from the Support section of the website. maker".


Beside this, if it's not too much of a hassle you could also bring your PC close enough to your Internet router and hook it up via Ethernet cable. Once Windows 10 has an Internet connection it should normally pull the newest drivers from Windows Update and install the drivers for this Wi-Fi card all by itself.


@woozle I have edited my previous comment, apart from that, I am connected to the internet from the PLC, my equipment is a desktop, going to the router and connecting an RJ-45 cable is not an option... Although right now I have internet with the PLC. It's valid right?


Can you please check from the Device Manager what is the hardware ID of that "unknown device"? (click "Properties" of the device, then the tab named something like "detailed information" and from the dropdown menu select hardware IDs.


EDIT: It seems that the problem is that when screwing the item to the PC case (I don't know what the name of the metal part that is screwed into the computer case is called) it came loose, hence it didn't work, but it's strange because Bluetooth did have ... Anyway, I have removed it, I have put it back, but I can't put it with the screw to hold it to the computer case (PC), it is loose... Let's see if I can find a solution to that .


What you can try is to loosen the two screws that hold the slot cover in place. There is usually a bit of wiggle room available and if you are lucky it may be enough to make it fit better. Then tighten the screws again.


For convenience, I'll repost it here, because I can't seem to attach the link, but I take no credit for the following solution or the github repo. Make sure the adapter is unplugged, and tether to a phone or connect to ethernet. In terminal, do:


Thank you for sharing the Linux driver and the methods of installing the Linux driver for TP-Link adapter. Your contributions make the community better! We tagged some threads with ' Linux driver' or 'Linux Driver & Highlighted' , you could view more useful and popular threads with the Linux topic here:


@zayx had the same problem. If during the install process you were asked for a password, secure boot is enabled and the kernel has to be newly signed. So before you do the modprobe you have to reboot. On reboot you are asked for a MOK-ENROLL (Machine-Owner Key) after pushing ok you are asked for the password. If you entered it correctly the new kernel will work and you cann do the modprobe. After this the tp-link device should work hopefully as it did for me.


I recently got a wireless adapter (TP-Link Archer T2UH V1). After plugging it in, I found out that the drivers for Linux are not native on Ubuntu. They do, however, have the drivers available for download (in the form of compilable/ makefile). What I am not sure of is how to install these drivers. I know that I need to build the drivers, place things where they need to be, and tie things together with the kernel. I am not sure how to do this, however, and need some help.


I have a TP-Link T2U Wi-Fi adapter and I was in struggle to find a working driver for Ubuntu 18.10. All the drivers, original and modified, was for previous version of the kernel but nothing useful for the 4.15 kernel. After a painful morning I found a working link to run the TP-Link T2U on the latest kernel.


After these steps the device should work. If you want the driver to work after the updating the kernel I advise to follow the next steps that includes the dkms utility. You will need to work in the directory "mt7610u-linksys-ae6000-wifi-fixes" otherwise the process will not work.


Hello, I bought a new Archer TXE75E (UN) ver 2.0, I connected it to a computer with a motherboard: Alder Lake Z690 from HP, model 8918. I did everything as in the instructions, but in the device manager it is displayed in completely different places than in guides. Moving on, I downloaded the drivers from the TP-Link website. bluetooth won't install because I have newer drivers, and wifi is updating, but nothing else. He didn't see the device and the drivers didn't seem to work. Deleting and reinstalling did nothing. What can I do with this?


So, we should check what the hardware ID of that "Network controller" under "Other devices" is. To do that right-click on the "Network controller", choose "Properties", then the "Details" tab and then select "Hardware Ids" from the dropdown selection. Please post the Hardware ID here.




@woozle


Ok, so I did it and now I can choose which Wi-Fi to connect to. I have a choice between Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi 3. When I turn on the new Wi-Fi 3, the download speed was for a 5 minut 1100 and now back to again 600... so it's looks like works exactly this same like orginal. How can I be sure it works?


Bluetooth also not working.


That's how is looks like now Device Manager. Network controller disappeared




Hello, I have a tp-link tl-wn722n and I'd like to add it to my netgear WNDR3700's usb to act as a wireless client (WWAN). Right now the neatgear's 2.4ghz is acting as a client and the 5ghz as the actual wifi network. I want to substitute the wifi with the usb wifi adapter, but I don't know how.


@esn I think I resolved my issue (after updating to latest Intel BT drivers and TP-link latest wifi drivers). I went to the wifi adapter properties, in Power Management, I un-checked "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" . I had mine in standby mode and after coming back, my bluetooth device was still connected. I hope it helps.


@esn any resolution to this issue? I recently got a TP-Link AX3000 PCIe card and have the same issue on a Dell Precision T3500 desktop system. Bluetooth fails when waking up from sleep unless i disable/enable in device manager. Thank you.


@Solla-topee thank you for the suggestion. I tried the latest intel driver and still have bluetooth issue upon wake up from sleep. I have the latest bios update for the Dell Precision T3500. For now I disable the bluetooth and enable in device manager as a temporary solution. Any patch for it? I may look into a batch file later. Thank you.


I have a TP-LINK TL-WN725N for my RPi, but it doesn't work out of the box. Atleast I can't connect to wifi. I've tried 'Isusb' but don't see it, I don't see my keyboard either though so I might do something wrong.


Since it identifies itself by chip manufacturer and model number. Beware that if you plug this dongle in while the pi is running, it will kill the power momentarily -- causing an unclean shutdown and a reboot. So don't do that, it could lead to grief. Plug it in before you boot or use a hub. Unplugging it is okay.


The driver for this is the 8192cu driver, which should be bundled with the kernel whatever distro you are using. While it's plugged in, try lsmod grep 8192 and you should see it listed. If so, the dongle has been detected and is ready to use, try iwconfig and you should see somewhere in there:


In my experience, the dongle runs a bit glitchy on the pi -- used on another linux system with the same driver, it's fine, but on the pi it seems to drop the connection occasionally. Also, on the other system the little blue led inside stays on -- on the pi it blinks. However, if your software compensates for the occasionally disconnect, it is not noticeable and works fine.


Not a chance. Unfortunately, most manufacturers do not support linux and so other people have to write the drivers, which is why there is not necessarily a perfect one for every device. WRT the rpi specifically, if you are buying stuff for use with it, check the verified peripherals page. The wifi adapters have a page of their own linked in that one, and if you check that page you'll see a couple of (slightly conflicting) reports about the TL-WN725N...I would not trust the one about "manual driver installation" as this person seems to have made an incorrect assumption about what model numbers correlate to what driver.


There are two approaches with out-of-tree WiFi drivers. First is that we may include it in the OS itself if it is a properly working driver. The downside is that if the driver is not maintained regularly when we upgrade the kernel, it may break.


The second is using our kernel module build template that @hedss provided as a solution. There are more downsides to this including the one I just described. When you upgrade the OS, and it contains a new kernel you will need to recompile the driver. Also managing the driver from a container is more risky and may cause the device to loose connectivity, e.g. in a case where the container crashes or cannot start due to application error or a Docker corruption.
