Spend hours to get TP-Link TL-WN823N usb wifi adapter to work, which asks to compile driver with older kernel (V3 --> 4.9.60 or earlier). Tried everything + other links
viewtopic.php?f=35&t=41541

Replaced with D-Link DWA-131. Driver from D's own site didn't work, but this does in both 4.9.193 and 4.19:
https://github.com/Mange/rtl8192eu-linux-driver

Install:
1) make
2) su-> enter your root password
3) make install
4) exit
5) add in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf 6) reboot

If any problem:
1. unplug and plugin usb adapter
2. unable wifi device (BIOS)

Just found this after hours trolling for a fix and it works like a charm. It's also brought me back to MX since I was on a Debian net install. The flashing light doesn't work on the adapter which always used to annoy me anyway but it connects fine. Many thanks.
