I got a new USB Wi-Fi adapter (ASUS AC1200 USB-AC53 Nano) and have failed to make it work in Ubuntu 18.04. I've tried now a lot of possible solutions such as this and also installation from this repo but the OS still fail to recognize the Wi-Fi adapter. I can see it when lsusb though. The solutions tried so far compiled and installed correctly. After that I reboot the PC and it stays in the closing Ubuntu screen and I have to turn it off manually. After turning it on again nothing happens. It is just that the Wi-Fi adapter is not recognized. I'd appreciate your help



EDIT:



At this point I made a fresh installation of Ubuntu 18.04. The following is the output of lsusb. There's no 8822bu module because after the fresh installation I haven't tried any of the drivers yet. Which one you recommend me to try first?



lsusb

I recommend this git repository: https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2bu/tree/5.6.1.6_35492.20191025_COEX20180928-6a6a



It compiles with a few possibly harmless warnings on my 5.3.xx system.



The procedure is outlined clearly at the github page but if you get stuck, please post back and I'll help.
