Device 2357:011f: NIC doesnt come up; Whitelist ?

[carpok]

I got this "TP-Link Archer T3U" and it's identified as following device:

Bus 001 Device 004: ID 2357:011f TP-Link 802.11ac WLAN Adapter

dmesg output after modprobe -r 88x2bu and modprobe 88x2bu:

[ 319.667722] RTW: module exit start [ 319.667725] usbcore: deregistering interface driver rtl88x2bu [ 319.682673] RTW: module exit success [ 328.512209] cfg80211: Loading compiled-in X.509 certificates for regulatory database [ 328.512405] cfg80211: Loaded X.509 cert 'sforshee: 00b28ddf47aef9cea7' [ 328.525237] RTW: module init start [ 328.525241] RTW: rtl88x2bu v5.8.7.4_37264.20200922_COEX20191120-7777 [ 328.525242] RTW: build time: Aug 26 2021 00:12:51 [ 328.525243] RTW: rtl88x2bu BT-Coex version = COEX20191120-7777 [ 328.525277] usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl88x2bu [ 328.525278] RTW: module init ret=0

Installation seems succesfully, but I doesn't get a NIC or e.g. with ifconfig.

Is this Device in Whitelist ?

Thanks!

Looks like you got "TP-link Archer T2U", 2357:011f is RTL8812AU chip. "TP-Link Archer T3U" should be 2357:012d.

My Archer T3U Plus also doesn't show up it's ID is 2357:0120:

Bus 001 Device 037: ID 2357:0120 TP-Link 802.11ac WLAN Adapter

@rhalff 2357:0120 is Archer T2U Plus with chip RTL8811AU, wchich not supported in this driver. You need RTL8812AU driver.

@RinCat I tried to add the id to this driver, which didn't work. Thanks for pointing me to the correct driver!
