Any chance of updating for latest kernel Linux raspberrypi 5.10.23-v7+ ? #4

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.

For 5.10 kernel, 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

Hello.

That actually did not work. It does however work for kernel 5.10.17-v7+.

I ended up building another driver first time around and yesterday i tried yours. What i found when using your driver was that the mac adress of wlan0 keeps changing at every reboot of the pi.

so i created the following /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/100-disable-wifi-mac-randomization.conf

and in that file i inserted the following

[connection] wifi.mac-address-randomization=1

[device] wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no

That ended up to work as planned.

The driver i used first time when i got it to work was from https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2bu.git

And i ofc changed thoose two lines. CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = n CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI = y

Hi, the latest kernel version officially released is 5.10.17-v7l+, where to download the kernel 5.10.23-v7 version of the firmware?

I encountered a similar issue. The kernel version is 5.10.17 in the latest raspbian OS mirror. However the kernel can be upgraded through the apt upgrade command, and the official firmware is updated to 5.10.63 in this repository: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware
