What happened?

I have bought the following USB adapter: WiFi6 USB Adapter AX900 Bluetooth 5.3 Dual band 900Mbps Wireless Network Card Wifi Antenna Dongle Free Drive For PC Win10 11 but it does not work out of the box and I cannot find a driver for it to install on my distro.

@morrownr I know the adapter CF-943AX where talked somewhere else, but i want to add a bit about that.
I saw some more adapters with Wifi6+BT5.3 inbuild and they might use the same firmware.
This listed, 0bda:b851 Comfast.
Edup EP-AX910, has Wifi+BT drivers for Win10/11 edup.cn or search here ax910 or maybe ax900 if needed szedup.com
TP-Link TX10UP has actual drivers from august. Dont know if location mathers. Philippines / US
Fenvi AX900
Knowing there is plenty more of this same models, maybe the latest firmwares gives some details or a hint for someone else to build up a working git repo.
