Driver is not working for me. I can see it as my network interface but i cant connect. I think there is some kind of kernel bug here, not sure, i'm not pro. NIC can even find networks but fails during connect - WPA error. Kernel errors RTW: ERROR [HALMAC][ERR]Dump efuse in suspend | RTW: ERROR rtl8822b_hal_init Download Firmware from array failed When i have my other wireless NIC pluged [ one that is working ] and then plug rtl88x2bu it breaks connection and cant reestablish until i unplug rtl88x2by (TP Link Archer T3U)

@ggalt the same thing happened to me, but when I reinstalled the module, as @RinCat says, it worked.

@ggalt it looking for ${kernelver}, not sure why it is not updated, try reinstall it again?

I just upgraded to the 5.8.0 kernel, but dkms balks and I get: :: Running post-transaction hooks... (1/2) Arming ConditionNeedsUpdate... (2/2) Install DKMS modules ==> dkms install --no-depmod -m rtl88x2bu -v 5.8.7.1.r96.220508d -k 5.8.0-1-ARCH ==> depmod 5.8.0-1-ARCH ==> Unable to install module rtl88x2bu/5.8.7.1.r96.220508d for kernel 5.7.7-1-ARCH: Missing kernel headers.
Any idea why it's looking for old kernel headers?

Excellent update, works perfectly even with the new Linux 5.8 kernel currently released.

@RinCat No, I had no error, it is that before going to 5.7 I wanted to make sure, since the documentation mentions support up to 5.6. But now that it's already tested with 5.7, I will. Thank you!

@rcv do you got any error? I just tried to compile it with 5.7, but it was successful.

If you encountered any problems, set debug log use
echo 5 > /proc/net/rtl88x2bu/log_levelormodprobe 88x2bu rtw_drv_log_level=5, and post your dmesg and network managers logs to https://pastebin.com/ .
