Driver for tp-link Archer T2U Nano

[Roland Deepson]

I can split the topic off and move it to Kali, if you'd like.

No thanks, actually. In fact, somewhat the opposite. I take in good stride the suggestion that "downloading a Kali live-usb does not a pentester make," and I realize that my intended scope is much narrower than I realized.

I could prolly get what I need done by paying someone for an hour or two of work, but I'm broke from a year of layoffs and a long and frustrating job search. Not only that, I AM actually of the mindset that I'd prefer to learn how to do stuff myself. From my experiences with Linux, I appreciate its value and, frankly, am only still married to Windows 10 by convenience. *shrug*

So, even outside of the fact that my next set of issues will apply primarily to aircrack, I have since reverted to Ubuntu and am simply stumped that my wifi dongle isn't recognizing in Ubuntu, either.

My issue is in cloning the git. Whether I point to jeremyb31 or to the aircrack-ng from upstream of that, I get a fatal early EOF / fatal index-pack failed. I didn't save a screengrab of the errors I was getting previosuly in Kali, but my gut says that this is the same error message I generated there to. (If this is relevant, I can happily retrace my steps in Kali to verify this, but I'm pretty sure it's not worth the bother.)

I suppose it's possible that my issue is that this git clone is failing due to the fact that I'm operating from a live-USB and not a fully-installed instance. Logistically, I'm kinda forced to live with putting the cart before the horse here -- I can't afford to disrupt my existing Windows install (which would be necessary to set up grub the way I'd want for a multi-boot) until I can confirm that accessing wifi -- and accessing wifi at high enough speeds (since my "pentesting" issue arises from being restricted to ~450kbps on landline-wifi or smartphone-hotspot-wifi, or ~500kpbs on USB-tethered smartphone-hotspot which isn't a fantastic improvement) -- and.... Well, it's 4:45am as I type this and at this point I'll just take another crack at this when I've gotten some rest.

Otherwise, thank you.

I actually hadn't. Seems comprehensive enough, I'll try this out later tonight. Will advise, thanks!

Seems that driver doesn't have support for your kernel or something like that,
Try this rtl8812au driver instead since it's had recent updates:
1. git clone https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au
2. cd rtl8812au
3. sudo make dkms_install
4. Then reboot
5. Check if your wifi is working.

Thanks it works with me too
