How do I get the linksys WUSB6300 wireless adapter to work on linux
Solution 1:
You need to install a driver for this dongle. Connect to internet another way and run in a terminal
sudo apt-get install git dkms
git clone https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux
cd rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux
make
sudo make install
Then reboot, insert the dongle and test. If there are any errors while running comands, then post them to your question.
To set it up permanently run these commands
cd ~/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux
sudo make uninstall
make clean
sudo cp -R ~/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux /usr/src/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux-1.0
sudo dkms install -m rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux -v 1.0
The driver will be installed using DKMS.
If the driver is installed first time the commands are
sudo apt-get install git dkms
git clone https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux
sudo cp -R rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux /usr/src/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux-1.0
sudo dkms install -m rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux -v 1.0
