rtl8812bu_for_raspbian's Introduction

Realtek 8812BU Driver for Raspbian

Driver for 802.11ac USB adapter with RTL8812BU chipset, only STA/Monitor mode is supported, no AP mode.

A few known wireless cards that use this driver include:

Fastoe AC1200 USB Wi-Fi Adapter
Cudy WU1200 AC1200 High Gain USB Wi-Fi Adapter
TP-Link Archer T3U
TP-Link Archer T3U Plus
TP-Link Archer T4U V3
Linksys WUSB6400M
Dlink DWA-181
Dlink DWA-182

Currently tested with Linux RaspberryPi 5.10.17-v7l+/5.4.51-v7l+/4.19.118-v7+/4.19.97-v7+ on:

Raspberry Pi 400
Raspberry Pi 4 B
Raspberry Pi Zero W
Raspberry Pi 3 B+
Raspberry Pi 2 B

Manual installation

To build, you have to retrieve source and run make, do following:

For Raspberry Pi OS kernel 5.10.17, please clone the v5.6.1 branch:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y bc git dkms build-essential raspberrypi-kernel-headers
git clone -b v5.6.1 https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU_for_Raspbian
cd RTL8812BU_for_Raspbian
make
sudo make install
sudo reboot

For Raspberry Pi OS kernel 5.4 & previous versions:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y bc git dkms build-essential raspberrypi-kernel-headers
git clone https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU_for_Raspbian
cd RTL8812BU_for_Raspbian
make
sudo make install
sudo reboot

If fails to compile like /lib/modules/5.x.x-v7+/build: No such file or directory. Stop:

pi@raspberrypi:~/RTL8812BU_for_Raspbian $ make
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE= -C /lib/modules/5.4.51-v7+/build M=/home/pi/RTL8812BU_for_Raspbian  modules
make[1]: *** /lib/modules/5.4.51-v7+/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: *** [Makefile:2284: modules] Error 2

please run the rpi-source command to install the kernel headers for kernel:

sudo apt install -y bc git flex bison libssl-dev libncurses5-dev
sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RPi-Distro/rpi-source/master/rpi-source -O /usr/local/bin/rpi-source && sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rpi-source && /usr/local/bin/rpi-source -q --tag-update
rpi-source

then, re-make again.

Known Issues

Below are a few known bugs,

Always required authentication without connect on 5GHz band
Short disconnects every few seconds on 5GHz band

the above problems are caused by power saving. First, make sure that the power supply of your Raspberry Pi can provide 3A current, then we can disable the 8812bu WiFi adapter power saving.

modprobe -r 88x2bu
modprobe 88x2bu rtw_power_mgnt=0 rtw_ips_mode=0 rtw_enusbss=0
echo "options 88x2bu rtw_power_mgnt=0 rtw_ips_mode=0 rtw_enusbss=0" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/88x2bu.conf

When the current is around 100mA, it never disconnects.

144mA @ full speed download (22MB/s).

Enjoy!

Raspberry Pi Zero W

Have you had any luck with this on the Pi Zero W? I was hoping to get 5ghz on it via this driver.

Monitor mode enabled then gets disabled automatically

followed the instructions but get this error when I use sudo airmon-ng start wlan1:

PHY Interface Driver Chipset

phy0 wlan0 brcmfmac Broadcom 43430
phy3 wlan1 rtl88x2bu TP-Link Archer T3U [Realtek RTL8812BU]
(monitor mode enabled)

Error setting channel: command failed: Device or resource busy (-16)
Error -16 likely means your card was set back to station mode by something.
Removing non-monitor wlan1 interface...
(monitor mode disabled)

any ideas?
p.s: I have also tried sudo airmon-ng check kill, but to no avail
p.p.s:
sudo ip link set wlan1 down
sudo iw wlan1 set monitor none
also doesnt work...

Any chance of updating for latest kernel Linux raspberrypi 5.10.23-v7+ ?

I have tried to install this driver on most of mi RPI but since the current kernel is Linux raspberrypi 5.10.23-v7+ it fails.

I havent done a lot of creations of drivers so i do not have the know how. Mainly been doing ASM coding in the past so that will not help a lot here.

Any chance you could update the support for this driver ? Would be much appreciated.

Cannot compile

I followed the guide, updating the kernel headers and running the rpi-source command, but when I go to make, I get this

Why are you deleting issues 😡. Problem still remains???

I opened an issue yesterday. There were about five issues opened. Other users in the past month reported the same issue. I logged in today to see if there were any updates. You delete all the issues. Why 😡? The problem still remains.
I sent a message on Amazon with the full details. The response I received was:

Hi, clone the v5.6.1 branch and make:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y bc git dkms build-essential raspberrypi-kernel-headers
git clone -b v5.6.1 https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU_for_Raspbian
cd RTL8812BU_for_Raspbian
make
sudo make install
sudo reboot

That's what I had done PREVIOUSLY per your README.md file just like another user wrote in their issue. The problem still remains!

If you flash Raspberry PI lite and you DO NOT follow your instructions and DO NOT do an apt update it works. But when you do an apt upgrade Raspberry Pi has a new kernel in their repository. It installs version 5.10.11-v71+ which makes the dongle inoperable.

If you try to install the software OR you try a fresh install following your instructions you receive this error when you run make.

Will it work for other arm64 dev board (odroid n2+) ?

Have You tested or been informed if this driver can be built for other dev board with arm64. I have an odroid N2+. In theory as ARM architecture is the same and so is the OS, it should work without any modifications, right?

Not working on my raspberry

My kernel version is 5.4.59-v7+
The error appears when executing "make"

Getting errors trying to install RTL8812BU_ for raspberry pi

Hey this is my Kernel version 5.4.0-1050-raspi.
after the "make" command, I get these errors I went to rpi-source as the second option.
Any suggestions would be very appreciated, thanks in advance.

On OSMC

Hi fastoe,

Just a comment: maybe you can add on the readme that it also works perfectly on OSMC.
The only change is how to install the headers:
apt-cache search osmc | grep headers
gives you the exact version of headers to install, in my case rbp2-headers-5.10.78-2-osmc

Thank you!

Nacho

No support for raspbian kernel 6.1+

This does not support raspbian for kernel 6.1+. Are there plans to support?

Any chance connecting 60 stations?

Hello,

I have tried recompiling the driver allowing for more stations, but the interface sometimes goes down and the stations try a reconnect.

The warning for no more room is triggered and a kernel event is logged.

Am I doing the right move?

This is with rpi 2 zero w with the lastest kernel.
