Request support USB_DEVICE(0x0BDA, 0xB832)

[ForrestFeng]

Seems the RTL8832 is not supported.

I have a USB WiFi Adapter RTL8832BU, I download the latest code (2025/08/30) and compiled and installed it successfully. But the Adapter does not properly initialized.

forrest@spring:~$ lsmod | grep 88x
88x2bu               2957312  0
cfg80211              712704  1 88x2bu

But I cannot see it in connections, no wlan initialized.

 ip a | grep wlan

The lsusb gives the ID of 0bda:8832 but I checked the current codebase it is not supported yet. I do not know how to add support for it, any one can help?

lsusb
...
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0bda:b832 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. 802.11ac WLAN Adapter
...

Thanks a lot.

If I remember correctly , I blacklisted the already included driver used by editing the blacklist.conf file then ran make clean , make , make install as root and rebooted and it started to work for me. There is a document in the driver that states this , read that , it explains what I'm explaining, also place the rincat driver source code folder in the /src folder for the make commands . I could never get dkms working , but the previously stated method works every build for me and I think I have the same realtek stats .

And of course run your make commands in a root terminal from the /src/rincat directory, you can also right click in any folder and select open in terminal , if your lazy like me :⁠-⁠)

I could not get dkms to work , but it does work good when compiled and made with make .

here is my deductions about source code and my USB device:

looking at source code for vendor (0bda) and device (b812) on RTL88x2BU-Linux-Driver directory :

$ rgrep -i 0bda .

Same as mine works well with the rincat 88x2bu. As metioned before, I could not get dkms working, but recompiling it after a kernel up date is only 3 or 4 mins, also you have to blacklist the default modules, moorror didn't work for me. I believe this is the one I use https://github.com/RinCat/RTL88x2BU-Linux-Driver

Also it is the right driver for an AC1200 USB adaptor, 0bda:b812 is a system address for the device, not a name for required source code. The previously stated source code works with my AC1200 with a realtek chipset.

0bda:8832 is 802.11ax driver, not this one. you need go find RTL8832BU

[mqu]

0bda:8832 is 802.11ax driver, not this one. you need go find RTL8832BU
