Cudy WU700 AC650 USB WIFI ADAPTER
This are the drivers for Cudy WIFI adapter (rtl8811CU) which was unfortunately shipped with the wrong drivers (88x2BU). This repository was forked from whitebatman2's one and some modification were added here and there to have it work on new kernels (kernel 5.4 confirm operation).
Modifications are from cilynx's RTS88x2BU driver which was installed due to incorrect assumption of the correct RTL driver, all thanks to him.
Here are the original instructions:
Build and install with DKMS
DKMS is a system which will automatically recompile and install a kernel module when a new kernel gets installed or updated. To make use of DKMS, install the dkms package, which on Debian (based) systems is done like this:
apt-get install dkms
To make use of the DKMS feature with this project, do the following:
DRV_NAME=rtl8821CU
DRV_VERSION=5.2.5.3
sudo mkdir /usr/src/${DRV_NAME}-${DRV_VERSION}
git archive master | sudo tar -x -C /usr/src/${DRV_NAME}-${DRV_VERSION}
sudo dkms add -m ${DRV_NAME} -v ${DRV_VERSION}
sudo dkms build -m ${DRV_NAME} -v ${DRV_VERSION}
sudo dkms install -m ${DRV_NAME} -v ${DRV_VERSION}
If you later on want to remove it again, do the following:
DRV_NAME=rtl8821CU
DRV_VERSION=5.2.5.3
sudo dkms remove ${DRV_NAME}/${DRV_VERSION} --all
Build and install without DKMS
Use following commands in source directory:
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe 8821cu
Raspberry Pi
To build this driver on Raspberry Pi you need to set correct platform in Makefile. Change
CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = y
CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI = n
CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI3 = n
to
CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = n
CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI = y
CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI3 = n
For the Raspberry Pi 3 you need to change it to
CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = n
CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI = n
CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI3 = y
