The closed source driver is not working either.
It compiled like a charm, and it loads perfectly.
(I even blacklisted the open-source one!)
But there is nothing in iwconfig or ifconfig.
Here is the dmesg: http://pastebin.com/EX8h1HfZ
I really don't want to waste your time guys by the way. If there is no
way to fix it, let's just leave it. (Don't get me wrong I know things
can be troublesome on Linux and I'm still willing to try anything. I
just bet you have better things to do. :))

Hello Larry/Mailing list!
I have compiled and installed the new wireless-testing kernel from git.
I'm sure I used the new kernel, as the device lighted up as soon as I
plugged
in. (And I got some new atheros ac module at "make oldconfig".)
There was no need for manual echo or modprobe.
Yet, the device is not working. It dies at the very same step.
Here is the dmesg: http://pastebin.com/C1MNdFiw
Please, let me know if I can help with anything.
Any debug option, patch or things like that.
My offer is still there Larry, I'm willing to give you a full SSH
access to the
machine with this stuff plugged in.
Besides that, I have no other idea.
! My router runs OpenWRT (latest stable), so I could also gather info
from
there. If it's possible.
(I checked dmesg but there is nothing. Only some non-crucial info
about the
generic eth ports and such.)
Thank you for the help.
(By the way if the chip is rare (no other people will benefit), then
I can just
get it back and ask for a refund. But if others use it as well, then
it's not a
waste of time... I guess.)
I think the TP-Link 8200ND is relatively new. You have version 0x11
for your chip, and mine is 0x10. That could be a difference.
Whay are you forcing the module loading? As indicated by the (F) in
the traceback, it looks as if all of them are being forced.

To help us debug this matter, the attached patch will let you compile
the vendor driver that you downloaded from the vendor site.
