Thank you Larry, that would be great.

I was just advised to return the dongle, but I still keep it.

The RTW8832CU is a variant of the RTW8852CU. I received a copy of the driver from Realtek and fixed it to build on kernels thru 6.4.0. The driver gives reasopnable performance (350 Mpps up and down) when connected to the 5G band of my ax1500 router. This router does not support the 6G band, thus I cannot say whether it would work for that 3rd band.

To get a copy, do the following:

git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw8852cu.git
cd rtw8852cu
make
sudo make install

I suggest that you install the modeswitch package for your distro. That will automatically eject the CDROM device and enable the wifi interface.

I will be making improvements in the coming days, but I wanted you to have access as soon as possible.

Larry
