Building

The quickest compile can presume:

git clone --depth 1 https://gitlab.com/SimplyCEO/rtl8188eus.git
cd rtl8188eus/
make -j$(nproc)
su -c "make install clean"
su -c "modprobe --remove rtl8xxxu && modprobe 8188eu"

Or with DKMS:

su -c "sh dkms-install.sh"

The old driver will be kept, but it need to be deactivated.<br> Verify if your kernel is equal or newer than '6.3.x'.<br> If it is, then the driver is called rtl8xxxu. Otherwise it is r8188eu.

All the instructions and explanations can be found by<br> reading the documentation or by accessing the topics:

• Building for Kali Nethuner;
• Available Modes;
• Configuring NetworkManager;
• Managed/Monitor Mode: toggle-script.
