This is a RTL8811AU
Code:
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0bda:a811 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
Ok. Let's try again.
  • Realtek drivers are chaotic. Only few people has time to make it working.
  • Do not use https://github.com/sloretz/rtl8811au -> not for 4.x kernel (for example STATION_INFO_SIGNAL is missing in kernel sources...)
  • Let's try with https://github.com/zebulon2/rtl8812au/tree/v5.1.5
    Code:
    $ sudo bash
    # git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/zebulon2/rtl8812au.git
    # cd rtl8812au
    # ### pre-check (0bda:a811)
    # grep A811 ./os_dep/linux/usb_intf.c
        {USB_DEVICE(USB_VENDER_ID_REALTEK, 0xA811) , .driver_info = RTL8821},/* Default ID */
        {USB_DEVICE(0x7392, 0xA811), .driver_info = RTL8821}, /* Edimax - Edimax */
        {USB_DEVICE(0x0BDA, 0xA811),.driver_info = RTL8821}, /* Comfast - CF-915AC */
    # ### section "#ifdef CONFIG_RTL8821A" so check enabled RTL8821A
    # grep "CONFIG_RTL8821A = y" Makefile
    CONFIG_RTL8821A = y
    # ### Makefile is set for "CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = y", it is probably ok for generic linux
    # ### compile for Rock64, last stable 64bit ayufan image
    # uname -a

Buy me a Beer.
I left this community in Aug 2019 due to PINE64 refusal to produce/deliver ROCK64-1G version 3 after more than one year of changing statuses to "planning", "evaluating", "releasing", "availability", "estimated availability" and finally "no schedule" Angry. ROCK64 is dead platform without any advantage. Buy Raspberry PI 4 !
