This seems to tell me not. Which firmware do I need? package name? |

- It's Plugged in.
- It's showing up on lsusb.
- Its 3rd party drivers are loaded.
No wifi, no interface on ifconfig, wpa_supplicant fails to load because it can't find an interface. This is what I mean by it's not working. |

Output of ifconfig -a shows no interface? Tip: to get help on forums post the command and the response. Telling us "it does not work" does not work.

True. Sorry bout that, I edited it with more precision.
And no, ifconfig doesn't show anything else than sit0 which I know isn't it. https://paste.pound-python.org/show/Yf7ZoRaWF0VpNfVcvbhU/ |

OK, this is the correct driver you are using. There is no driver for 0bda:a811 in kernel yet and 0bda:a811 is supported by the driver in github.
However, it is not asking for firmware when loading (it should be in dmesg). Maybe it does not need firmware. I'd use something like tail -f /var/log/messages and then unload/reload the module. Just to see if there is anything it is complaining about.
Indeed, if this is a systemd box then I have no clue. We haven't seen emerge --info, so there is no telling.
BTW, your IOMMU implementation seems to be broken, I'd disable it in firmware if you are not using it.

Nope, OpenRC. But If anything here is the emerge --info paste : https://paste.pound-python.org/show/RZMKfU3EUPd9PKqHOZd2/

I'll look into it myself and let you know if I need help. For now though I'm more eager making that thing send all the wifi packets, shall we? |

Delupara,
There are a few ebuilds on the net. They look like they pull from assorted git repos.
Version -9999 ebuilds pull from HEAD. Avoid them until you have tried other versions.
Google says you will need firmware. Its not in linux-firmware and I've not found any ebuilds for that.
There is also a Gentoo Wiki page that hints that the rtl8812au works.
If none of that helps, it may mean that nobody has coded your vendor and device ID in the driver. So it might work if only if knew it was allowed to try.
Some drivers allow you to pass Vendor and Device IDs as module parameters. Others want a one line code change.
will list the vendor and device IDs the module knows about and at the bottom of the output, it will list the module parameters that the module accepts.

Neddy, I checked, the USB ID 0bda:a811 is supported by git driver. I'd say missing firmware is the culprit.
| Code: | os_dep/linux/os_intfs.c:char *rtw_fw_file_path = "/system/etc/firmware/rtlwifi/FW_NIC.BIN";
os_dep/linux/os_intfs.c:char *rtw_fw_wow_file_path = "/system/etc/firmware/rtlwifi/FW_WoWLAN.BIN";
|
^^ This is a snippet from git sources.

Jaglover,
That's a strange path for firmware.

Every packages here either fails in the emake phase or in the emerging phase. Like I mentionned in OP, the only one that successfully compiled is the one I linked.

As Jaglover mentionned, It is reconized, so I'm not too sure what to do.

Well, I posted it only for firmware file names so our Delupara can download the firmware and put it where the driver is looking for it.

Very odd indeed, I don't even have a system folder to begin with. Where should I get these firmwares from though? |

Delupara,
I linked one source of the firmware.
You will need to inspect the code that loads the firmware to find out where it goes.
I don't have a /system either but don't be afraid to create it.
When the firmware is not found, there is usually an entry in dmesg that tells the full path to the file the driver wants.

Hey everyone, Sorry for the late reply, I was fixing a pc.
Now this does bring a few updates as I then had access to a cd reader, which I promptly burned the image to my usb.
Now with my original driver files, everything compiles, the interface is showing up but it won't connect/run. Here is the newly found interface
https://paste.pound-python.org/show/eXXla3xG5hBWPHvkfWGl/
I can ping localhost but nothing outside. I think I'm having issues with wpa_supplicant, here is my poorly edited copy of the example config file

Delupara,
That worked well enough to get you a global IPv6 address.
| Code: | wlp17s0f3u3: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fd00:a84e:3f49:4b32:20f:ff:fe63:a4ff prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x0<global>
inet6 2607:fea8:c2e0:332:20f:ff:fe63:a4ff prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x0<global>
inet6 fe80::20f:ff:fe63:a4ff prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> |
That means the interface managed to connect to something to get its IPv6 prefix.
Were you expecting IPv6 to work as its not on the wired interface?
Please put dmesg onto a pastebin site.

yeah I figured that much but wherever its getting the ipv6 addresses I have no clue.

I honest to god can't make sense out of this, you'll have to rephrase.

Delupara,
RTW is nice and verbose.
| Code: | [ 15.155294] RTW: auth success, start assoc
[ 15.169687] RTW: assoc success |
That means that the radio link is correctly established.
Whatever Access Point it connected to (maybe its not yours) is advertising an IPv6 prefix, so you have working IPv6.
That much is automatic.
To try to get IPv4 working, try and look at ifconfig.
Warning: If several interfaces are in the same subnet, you may find that neither work.
| Code: | | inet6 2607:fea8:c2e0:332:20f:ff:fe63:a4ff |
is a public on the internet IPv6 address, so you need an IPv6 firewall.
| Code: | | ping6 2607:fea8:c2e0:332:20f:ff:fe63:a4ff |
works for me too, so if you still have the 2607:fea8:c2e0:332/64 prefix, your system responded to my pings.

Ok, 1. I'm somewhat concerned about this. How can I view ssids and the ones I'm connected to.
2. Is the public ipv6 address normal??? Sounds like it isn't.
EDIT: dhcpcd worked, now I got intonet! |

Delupara,
If you have an IPv6 address that starts with a 2, its public. That's the way IPv6 works
You need to lock it down with a firewall.
From your dmesg
| Code: | [ 15.102453] RTW: ssid=topkek2016, len=10
[ 15.102454] RTW: bssid=a8:4e:3f:49:4b:38 |
and fractions of a second later ...
| Code: | [ 15.103094] RTW: rtw_hal_set_bssid wlp17s0f3u3- hw port -0 BSSID: a8:4e:3f:49:4b:38
[ 15.137524] RTW: IQK offload finish in 30ms
[ 15.144921] RTW: OnBeacon: beacon keys ready
[ 15.144930] RTW: link to Artheros AP
[ 15.144931] RTW: start auth
[ 15.144934] RTW: issue_auth
[ 15.155286] RTW: OnAuthClient
[ 15.155294] RTW: auth success, start assoc |
So it authorised with that access point. I don't see any other attempts to connect with other access points.
If that's your Access Point, you appear to have IPv6. However, your wired interface does not have an IPv6 address and the setup is automatic.

Thanks so much for this help bro, I'm only 19 and this stuff is making me curious and interested. Now to fix my IOMMU and my sound not existing, cheers!
Also this is indeed my internet. Nice to know I'm not stealing a neighbors wifi... |
