***Tested and working method as of MAR 2025.***
As you may have noticed, the latest Linux kernels have caused a large amount of wireless USB adapters to lose monitor mode support. Thanks to a diligent community of Wi-Fi enthusiasts a work around has already been found, so that you no longer have to downgrade to an older kernel.
You can find more detailed instructions on the driver install here:
https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au
To start, update and upgrade your system. Make sure to reboot before moving on to the next step, as you want to make sure you install the correct kernel headers.
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
reboot
Next we will install the necessary packages to build and install this driver.
sudo apt-get install make iw git linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential
Clone the driver repository to your current working directory and cd inside.
git clone https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au.git
cd rtl*
We can now build and install the driver.
make
sudo make install
After the driver has installed, it is a good idea to reboot once more.
reboot
