Hi,
I have a little USB 802.11ac dongle that I'm trying to get going in
my server. lsusb gives:
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0bda:a811 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
RTL8811AU 802.11a/b/g/n/ac WLAN Adapter
I've had a look at the current kmod driver which is version
8188eu-kmod-4.1.4_6773.20130222-3 and it does not cover the USB ID.
Looking at the spec file in the src rpm it points me to
https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu but there is no useful update
there.
There appear to be a few sources for this driver such as
https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux and
https://github.com/diederikdehaas/rtl8812AU which both cover the USB
ID. Are you able to work your magic on one of these or any other
relevant version you can find?
Many thanks,
Nick
Sure, I can take a look but it probably won't be before the weekend.
Do either of those driver sources compile / work for you? The first
one looks more maintained so I'd probably start with that. I couldn't
find any linux driver/source on the Realtek website for your device,
only for Windows. I wonder where these (above) driver sources originated?

Hi Phil,
I have not tried compiling anything because I don't know what magic you
do. I can give it a go and see what happens. I am puzzled about the
sources because I tried searching github for rtl8188au and only the
lwfinger sources appeared so I must searching incorrectly. I agree about
the realtek site. I tried searching there as well.
Yours puzzled,
Nick
