I have recently ordered a Realtek 8812BU based USB3 wifi dongle. (yet to be delivered)

Please confirm if it is supported out of the box or any specific package/dkms driver needs to be installed for it to work optimally...

agnivo, in the forum search box enter realteak 8812BU and the first few posts there esp. from Tim should assist you.

Got the device delivered this morning. As suggested by @linexer2016 and @timkb4cq , I have installed the driver from morrownr git and the dongle is working fine. I have read that rtl8812bu might have in-kernel driver support in the future.

** Query: Like we have various other dkms packages in MXPI for rtl8xxx devices offering easy installation, is it possible to have one for the morrownr driver for rtl8x12bu until we get in-kernel support?

Thanks

Sounds to me like you need to put in a request at the package requests section, devs don't read everything.
