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 branch v5.3.4 as 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:

source=('rtl88xxau::git+https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au.git#branch=v5.3.4'

Read the README.me to learn how to set your interface in monitor mode (and other things).

Important: Use ip and iw instead of ifconfig and iwconfig

@rjahanbakhshi Hi, thanks for the feedback, but I don't want to add archs that I cannot test myself. Everyone is welcome to modify the PKGBUILD and test it in different architectures as you did.

Could you please add aarch64 to the arch variable. I added it and built it for Alfa Network AWUS036AC on raspberry pi 4 and it works perfectly.

@elemat I don't have that issue. Are you using latest commit?

cheezsteak commented on 2021-03-04 17:30 (UTC)

@elemat I'm having the same problems after a recent update. My laptop can connect to the 5GHz network on channel 157 but my desktop with a rtl8812 card cannot see it. The rtl8812 card shows that it does support channel 157 at 5785 MHz but at 30.0 dBm where as my laptop has 22.0 dBm. I don't know if the dBm discrepency is relevant though.

elemat commented on 2021-03-03 23:35 (UTC)

I am using this module and it works well, except it may not provide the 5 GHz band. I upgraded to the 5.11.2 kernel. Is anyone experiencing the same problem?

If you're having issues building the module, make sure you have the package pahole installed. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/69654

not working with rpi4

@iyanmv Sorry for the faulty report, I was sure I was using the newest commit but obviously wasn't, my fault pardon me :)

iyanmv commented on 2020-12-31 14:32 (UTC)

@cedricbambooza I cannot replicate your issue. And this is a git package, it is your responsibility to use the last commit since I will not update the pkver every time there is a new commit upstream [1]. If you are using an AUR helper, probably it is not pulling latest commits and you are stuck in r1123 (based on the logs you put upstream)
