Is this the right driver? #8

Sorry for the general question, but I have a device ID that I can't map to a Realtek chipset or driver. This is my best guess, so I'm looking for a sanity check before I add the device ID to the driver and see if it behaves.

Here's what I know: TP-Link AXE5400 (tri-band) also called TP-Link Archer TXE70UH USB 35bc:0502

Linux reports... Manufacturer: Realtek Product: 802.11ax WLAN Adapter

Just from Realtek and Tri-Band, this seems like the right chipset and driver? Should I try adding the device ID or is there some other way I should try to confirm which IC is in use? (and is there a way to do that short of prying the dongle apart?)

Found the FCC registration and photos definitely show an RTL8832CU: https://fccid.io/2AXJ4TXE70UH/Internal-Photos/2301TW0105-UI-Internal-Photograph-6747400

These drivers do not include any RTW8852 or RTW8832 USB devices. I think the 8832 is an 8852 without the Bluetooth. You will need to run the vendor driver.
