TL-WDN5200H无线usb网卡在Linux上的使用
买了个TL-WDN5200H无线usb网卡,但是发现它居然不支持Linux,但是我有时需要在Linux上使用,这就尴尬了.于是到网上搜索资料,终于解决了这个问题.
- 首先编译安装:https://github.com/whitebatman2/rtl8821CU
根据它的README文档，Ubuntu下可以这样安装：
sudo apt-get install dkms
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}
# 下载工程
git clone https://github.com/whitebatman2/rtl8821CU.git
cd rtl8821CU
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe 8821cu
- 使用
lsusb命令观察网卡的编号(插拔前后的变化)
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 093a:2510 Pixart Imaging, Inc. Optical Mouse
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 04d9:0223 Holtek Semiconductor, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 013: ID 0bda:1a2b Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
TL-WDN5200H的编号就是0bda:1a2b.
- 切换usb网卡的模式为无线网卡模式:
sudo usb_modeswitch -KW -v 0bda -p 1a2b
输出如下:
Take all parameters from the command line
* usb_modeswitch: handle USB devices with multiple modes
* Version 2.5.2 (C) Josua Dietze 2017
* Based on libusb1/libusbx
