Fromtimetotime we’ve been asked if the dongles with the abovementioned chip are supported.
Unfortunately, there’s no official Raspbian support for these at the moment. People needed to compile the driver themselves which might get rather tedious and perplexing.
That’s why we rolled out a temporary solution for this matter. In order to use any of these devices you need to perform very simple steps.
Tried both commands in sequence again and am still getting the same thing. First command downloads a heap of package files. Second command reads those lists, build a dependency tree, reads state info and then finishes with the error.
sudo apt-get install rtl8812au-dkms
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
E: Unable to locate package rtl8812au-dkms
I’m running a Pi2 with latest firmware and the latest version of Raspian.
