@Gatenkaas The driver works for me on kernel 5.3.1, and I'm using TP-Link T9UH. However, this driver is nowhere close to the performance I'd get with the package rtl8814au-dkms-git. The signal strength is about 30% less and the upload speed is at least 80% slower. Sadly, the rtl8814au-dkms-git driver has stopped working after I upgraded to 5.3.1. Otherwise, I wouldn't be using the aircrack driver.

@Gatenkaas File any bug reports (Search before creating a new issue) in the upstream github. They can fix it there. https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au

None of the current drivers in AUR for kernel 5.3 seem to support my tp-link T9UH v1 anymore [8814au]. No building problems at all - but the device has no power (lights). However lsusb shows the device, but modprobe hangs. No problems on kernel 5.2.

I have deleted the hardcoded branch in the sources array as suggested by @jpegxguy. v5.6.4.1 is currently the active branch so I'll keep it. If you have any problems, please try a different branch and check issues in the upstream repo.

@capoeira I disagree with that philosophy, but you can certainly go by it.
I mean, Linux 3.10 would work fine, but I wouldn't use it for my PC. It's old, less features and bugfixes.
The driver you chose is maintained and contains none of the work that aircrack have put into it for unification and to support all the chips e.t.c.

@jpegguy thanks, but https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl8812au-dkms-git/ seams to work nicely for me. "If it aint broke, don't fix it"

@capoeira Try removing the branch selection from the sources array

They have changed the upstream branch. Save yourself the trouble, don't hardcode the branch in the sources array. Just use it like this:
rtl88xxau::git+https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au.git

not working anymore for my TP-LINK Archer T4U. the other driver works
ckoba commented on 2019-09-13 07:00 (UTC)
I've reworked this slightly to support building on any platform (tested on x86_64 and aarch64).
The patch is at https://www.disavowed.jp/arch/rtl88xxau-aircrack-dkms-git_anyarch.diff ... if the patch is acceptable to the maintainer, please merge.

This package now forces to use the branch
v5.6.4.2(the one that works better for me), which is the default one in the remote repository although they still mention branchv5.3.4as the stable one. If you have any issues, please leave a comment, and also tried to change the branch in the source array. For example, change it to:Read the README.me to learn how to set your interface in monitor mode (and other things).
