You can always try to contact the original manufacturer of hardware and retailer of the same.

You can also try to find patches for the current kernel:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=rtl8812au+3.18

This does not guarantee that the device will actually work, 
this is just the best effort from users just like you. ;)


Try this
$ git clone https://github.com/vsurrel/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux.git

$ cd rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux/
$ git log -1
