Hi all, I've looked for weeks online trying to find out how to install the RTL8814AU driver for my TP-Link Archer T9UH v1. All the solutions either just don't work or end up with depmod stalling. An example of this stalling effect is when I run:


apt-get install realtek-rtl88xxau-dkms

Good news! Module version v5.3.4_28226.20180614_COEX20171103-6c6d for 88XXau.ko
exactly matches what is already found in kernel 5.3.0-kali2-amd64.
DKMS will not replace this module.
You may override by specifying --force.

depmod...

Here are some (hopefully) useful outputs

To try to help I compiled a different version of the driver on a 2019.4 build.

It compiled without any fatal errors. Might be worth a try. I do not have a 8814 to try it however.
