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

Hello RinCat!

Something weird is going on with the package update. 'yay' warn me about this: aur/rtl88x2bu-dkms-git 5.13.1.r181.2812290-1 -> 5.13.1.r166.3d25a90-1 But after installing it wants to update again. Do you know what is it about?

Regards, Richard

upd: I did notice rtw88_ drivers being on in lsmod. After I created a file /etc/modprobe.d/rtw8822bu.conf and added blacklist rtw88_8822bu into it (as RinCat suggests here https://github.com/RinCat/RTL88x2BU-Linux-Driver) driver seems to be working fine: green light flashes, speed is back to normal (will report if it drops again, for now it seems to be fine and downloaded a quite large file). So for now blacklisting rtw88 seems to be fixing the issue. All of this is was done on upstream Arch, kernel version is 6.2.1.

Same as reported below by piesel and julio.b below

Getting drops after ~10 minutes, even when working in the beginning

Same issue here, I am using Archer T4U v3 (ID 2357:0115) and this driver is very unstable with 6.2 kernel. Connection works fine in the beginning but it drops after ~10mins and there is no way to restore it. Replugging the device doesn't help at all.

I had to downgrade to linux 6.1 for now

piesel commented on 2023-03-01 20:25 (UTC)

it seems that with kernel version 6.2.1 driver does work, however I noticed few changes -- my Archer T4U V3 stopped flashing green light when it works, and speed has dropped like 2 times than it was before. It also does sometimes stop working, repluging it in helps. I also did blacklist rtw88_8822bu, but it didn't seem like fix problems entirely.

Hi,I was facing an issue in which the driver wasn't working with Linux 5.18+ and it was later resolved.
If anyone facing similar issue with Linux 5.18+ kernel, then one of the reasons could be
that some distributions have added experimental RTW88 USB support and it may conflict with rtl88x2bu.
Here is the link where I found the solution https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2bu#linux-518-and-rtw88-driver
It was resolved by blacklisting it with the following command, and after that a reboot is needed
echo "blacklist rtw88_8822bu" > /etc/modprobe.d/rtw8822bu.conf

@DodoLeDev since there are multiple kernels, it is not a hard deps.

A dependency is missing: linux-headers. Without it, you will be faced with this error:

The driver does not display the channel speed in the connection properties.

Драйвер не отображает канальную скорость в свойствах соединения.
