I don't know why it doeen't work now (checked on linux 4.12 and 4.13) even if you patched it for thoes wifis:

5.2.9 is working for me - thanks.

I just pushed the new driver 5.2.9. It only supports 8812au and has no monitoring or frame injection, which are not available. But I read it solves memory leaks issues compared to 5.1.5.
Also, there is no CONFIG_CALIBRATE_TX_POWER_TO_MAX option in the Makefile, but it seems it has been replaced with CONFIG_TXPWR_LIMIT_EN, which I set to y. Hence this is the #txpower branch of the repository.
Please let me know if this working fine.

@zebulon Thanks!
I concur with your information. On the pi with Kali I am able to get higher tx power, but need to confirm this is actually the case.
I use the injection capability, but no need to stagnate your package only for my interest.
Again,thank you for the work you are doing and fast responses when there are a problem with new kernels!

@nikita2206: yes, I have been testing it and it works fine. We would lose the frame injection code that was put in 5.1.5, but does anyone use it here? I am going to submit a new PKGBUILD asap.
@marakasmalan: txpower is set to max in the config file, see https://github.com/zebulon2/rtl8812au/commit/3f5aab9d8c73028f4188fc770b01c58d8585e11d

@zebulon: Thanks!
I can confirm this works with Edimax AC600 adaptor (EW-7811UAC)
However, cannot set txpower, defaults to 12dB

Hey @zebulon , yours seems like the latest version of a patch among others here, at aur.archlinux.org.
I just found a newer version of this driver at https://github.com/gordboy/rtl8812au you might want to have a look and update your fork, thanks for your work.

@zebulon: It works. Thanks.

@zebulon: working fine. thanks!

@libcg: I have merged a fix into my git repo. Can you please reinstall the driver again?

To all having an issue with this driver: please try these alternate packages: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtw88-dkms-git or https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl88xxau-aircrack-dkms-git.
