Hi @Anoncheg1

With mt7601 it is working.

Mediatek's drivers are Linux Wireless Standards compliant, Realtek's out-of-kernel drivers are not. Realtek's USB support is not good at all. Your best option is to buy Mediatek based adapters but if you already have a rtl8812bu based adapter then go to the following repo:

https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw88

It is where we have been working to improve Realtek's WiFi 5 adapters with standards compliant drivers. This is a community effort, not Realtek. It is however, very good.

FYI: The Main Menu of this site is:

Reading menu items 1 and 2 should be informative. The Plug and Play List shows USB WiFi adapters that are known to be plug and play on Linux but are also very good adapters.

A post that should help regard WiFi 6 adapter:
