RTL8188GU 802.11n WLAN Adapter (Driver CDROM Mode) I built https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl8188gu-dkms-git but it did not produce the module expected > modprobe rtl8188gu modprobe: FATAL: Module rtl8188gu not found in directory /lib/modules/6.9.7-arch1-1 so after a comment on that page I installed https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl8xxxu-dkms-git :> lsmod | grep rtl rtl8xxxu 303104 0 btrtl 32768 1 btusb mac80211 1597440 2 iwlmvm,rtl8xxxu bluetooth 1101824 16 btrtl,btmtk,btintel,btbcm,btusb cfg80211 1363968 4 iwlmvm,iwlwifi,mac80211,rtl8xxxu But after reboot it does not associate with the network device.
