ArkOS v2.0 (03/30/2024) R36S

An RTL8188 + USB-C adapter will not connect to a WPA2/WPA3 wifi network on ArkOS. It will connect to a WPA/WPA2 network. It will connect to both networks on AmberELEC prerelease-20240331_2102

The error message presented is: "Activation Failed. Secrets were required, but not provided..."

The router is a Xiaomi AX3000T running the latest openwrt snapshot. Multiple other devices are connected at WPA3.

I tried another usb-c adapter I got years ago, with the same result on both systems.

802.11r is off.

WPA2/WPA3 (unable to connect): badwifi1 badwifi2 WPA/WPA2 (able to connect): goodwifi1 goodwifi2

It’s not a supported or recommended wifi adapter in ArkOS and the R36s is not an officially supported device.

The recommended TL-WN725N is the same device, an RTL8188.
