This driver can be installed using [DKMS]. This 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:
```
sudo apt-get install dkms
```
### Installation of Driver
In order to install the driver open a terminal in the directory with the source code and execute the following command:
```
sudo ./dkms-install.sh
```
### Removal of Driver
In order to remove the driver from your system open a terminal in the directory with the source code and execute the following command:
```
sudo ./dkms-remove.sh
```
### Make
For building & installing the driver with 'make' use
sudo apt-get install bc raspberrypi-kernel-headers
```
Then run this step to change platform in Makefile, For RPI 1/2/3/ & 0/Zero:
```
$ sed -i 's/CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = y/CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = n/g' Makefile
$ sed -i 's/CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI = n/CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI = y/g' Makefile
```
But for RPI 3B+ & 4B you will need to run those below which builds the ARM64 arch driver:
```
$ sed -i 's/CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = y/CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = n/g' Makefile
$ sed -i 's/CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM64_RPI = n/CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM64_RPI = y/g' Makefile
```
In addition, if you receive an error message about `unrecognized command line option ‘-mgeneral-regs-only’` (i.e., Raspbian Buster), you will need to run the following commands:
```
sed -i 's/^dkms build/ARCH=arm dkms build/' dkms-install.sh
sed -i 's/^MAKE="/MAKE="ARCH=arm\ /' dkms.conf
```
For setting monitor mode
1. Fix problematic interference in monitor mode.
```
airmon-ng check kill
```
You may also uncheck the box "Automatically connect to this network when it is avaiable" in nm-connection-editor. This only works if you have a saved wifi connection.
2. Set interface down
```
sudo ip link set wlan0 down
```
3. Set monitor mode
```
sudo iw dev wlan0 set type monitor
```
4. Set interface up
```
sudo ip link set wlan0 up
```
For setting TX power
```
sudo iw wlan0 set txpower fixed 3000
```
### LED control
#### You can now control LED behaviour statically by Makefile, for example:
```sh
CONFIG_LED_ENABLE = n
```
value can be y or n
#### statically by module parameter in /etc/modprobe.d/8812au.conf or wherever, for example:
```sh
options 88XXau rtw_led_enable=0
```
value can be 0 or 1
#### or dynamically by writing to /proc/net/rtl8812au/$(your interface name)/led_enable, for example:
