Based on my testing of rtw88: rtw8822cu, it is non-functional in AP mode. A small group is working on this driver and recently sent in 5 patches to help with various problems, mostly managed mode and missing vid-pid related issues. The location where we are coordinating the effort is: https://github.com/morrownr/8821cu-20210916/issues/115 Patches are being tested at: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw88 If you need a driver that
