It seems that Fedora does not support the Realtek RTL8811CU for WiFi. A user at ask.Fedora just had the issue. `lsusb` classifies it just as "Bus 001 Device 010: ID 0bda:c811 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. 802.11ac NIC"; correspondingly, `nmcli` does not recognize it at all. A bug report with some improvised interim-solutions seems to already exist https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1957828 , the most widespread solution seems to be https://github.com/brektrou/rtl8821CU (but unknown maintenance). Is it known why the 8811CU remains unsupported? Or have I missed something? Regards, Chris

Sorry, I didn't mean to implement this specific solution. That was only meant as example that the issue is known. I meant it more generic, any solution for the user that can be included in the repos or rpmfusion, so that it remains managed by dnf to ensure testing and updating. Such as we have it with nvidia. I was wondering as the 8811CU seems widespread.

To get it into fedora, the module will need to be included in the upstream kernel. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure

you have two examples here : https://pagure.io/rtl8821ce-kmod/ https://pagure.io/rtl88x2bu-kmod/ if the license is GNU General Public License v2.0 , you also can built it on copr
