I've used this driver for years to enable a variety of USB interfaces. I'm now using a Netis WF2190 AC1200 dongle. It stopped working yesterday after a kernel upgrade.
The kernel builds w/o errors in DKMS and manually; the module loads, it enables the hardware and tries to connect to my preconfigured WLAN. However, it fails to authenticate:

Basically, an endless cycle of connect/start auth.
If anybody runs across this error, I was able to use the aircrack-ng driver with 4.15.0-123-generic:
