rtl8188eus v5.7.6.1

Realtek rtl8188eus & rtl8188eu & rtl8188etv WiFi driver

This is a pure Realtek release, not from vendor but from all the Realtek multichip "bases" we've seen, this must be the newest, most stable and effective one. The performance and code quality has been improved.

Supports

• Android 9
• WPA3-SAE
• MESH Support
• Monitor mode
• Frame injection
• Supported up to kernel v5.4+ ... And a bunch of various wifi chipsets

Howto build/install

1. You will need to blacklist another driver in order to use this one instead of the one provided with kernel. Simply follow instructions below:
   
2. "echo "blacklist r8188eu" > /etc/modprobe.d/realtek-wifi.conf"
   
3. Then run "make && make install"
   
4. And reboot in order to blacklist the module and load this module instead.

MONITOR MODE howto

Use these steps to enter monitor mode.

$ sudo airmon-ng check-kill
$ sudo ip link set <interface> down
$ sudo iw dev <interface> set type monitor

Frame injection test may be performed with

$ aireplay -9 <interface>

NetworkManager configuration

Add these lines below to "NetworkManager.conf" and ADD YOUR ADAPTER MAC below [keyfile] This will make the Network-Manager ignore the device, and therefor don't cause problems.

[device]
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no

[ifupdown]
managed=false

[connection]
wifi.powersave=0

[main]
plugins=keyfile

[keyfile]
unmanaged-devices=mac:A7:A7:A7:A7:A7

TODO

• Turn down log level / DEBUG (we want it now for some months just to see)

• Implement txpower control
