This repo is also interesting:

Rewrite RTL 8812 driver
https://github.com/ulli-kroll/rtl8821au

even has firmwares:
$ ls rtl8821au/firmware/
rtl8812aufw.bin  rtl8821aufw.bin

make produces:
... error: macro "__DATE__"
... error: macro "__TIME__"

Classic! :)
That's the error I was getting with the original program that led to this thread.
I'll also try the PLD drivers and see how they go.

I've run the PLD patch process and the make to build the driver which I am using at the moment. I'll monitor this for a while and see how it goes. I'll also need to do the compile again as I have also just done an update run which has updated to the 3.18 kernel.

Must be the ubiquitous Realtek RTL8812AU USB 3.0 802.11ac chipset is really popular.
