What kind of device do you have?

rtl8xxxu will support this chip „soon” and I'm wondering if it needs to support any RFE („RF front end”) types other than 5.

If you change the Makefile like so:

diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 03be10a..2d0f06b 100644
--- a/Makefile
+++ b/Makefile
@@ -94,7 +94,7 @@ CONFIG_IP_R_MONITOR = n #arp VOQ and high rate
 CONFIG_RTW_UP_MAPPING_RULE = tos
 
 ########################## Debug ###########################
-CONFIG_RTW_DEBUG = n
+CONFIG_RTW_DEBUG = y
 # default log level is _DRV_INFO_ = 4,
 # please refer to "How_to_set_driver_debug_log_level.doc" to set the available level.
 CONFIG_RTW_LOG_LEVEL = 4

this driver will print some things to the journal, including this line:

RTW: pHalData->rfe_type is 0x5

What does it print for y'all? And what brand and model is your device?

This is mine.
Thank you for making such a high quality driver, @dubhater .

Thanks for the reply. RFE 1 is supposed to be handled the same way as RFE 5, so your device should Just Work™. Is it working okay?

It works perfectly. No issue found so far.
