It is installed, right?
One question I have, in the 8814 instructions above you mentioned:
// Adds missing Vendor/Product ID
$ sed -i '/0xA834/ a\\t{USB_DEVICE(0x7392, 0xA833), .driver_info = RTL8814A}, /* Edimax - Edimax */' os_dep/linux/usb_intf.c
Should the values inside the USB_DEVICE brackets be the idVendor and idProduct numbers mentioned in the dmesg output above?
It is not for for D-Link DWA-192 - VID/PID 2001:331a is already there
https://github.com/diederikdehaas/rtl8814AU/blob/driver-4.3.21/os_dep/linux/usb_intf.c#L208
I've isolated one problem I have with this. Device wlp4s6 is still there
and it is an old pci wireless device that I thought was dead. It looks
like it wasn't and all the time that I thought I was using the DWA192 I
was actually using the pci device, so I need to provide an apology to
everyone who provided help on this, I was working under a false impression.
But having compiled the 8814au driver that I downloaded from the web
site you provided it seems to be using working now on the 5GHz channel,
but the device has a blue light around the middle of it that the driver
seems to be flashing all the time. When the device is active the light
should be permanently on and goes out when connection to the net is
lost. I could switch the light off but that defeats the purpose of what
it is for. Under windows that process works correctly.
In network manager the device it is talking to shows this: wlp3s0u2
(0E:13:3D:F9:D2:A4). I thought the information within the brackets was
the mac address of the device, but if I am correct it has determined the
mac address incorrectly.
regards,
Steve
