Realtek RTL8852CU - 802.11ax USB wifi driver

Are there any drivers support for Realtek Semiconductor Corp. 802.11ax WLAN?
If yes, how do I install it? I’m new to Arch.

How well the driver is supported in Linux is entirely dependent upon the WiFi chip in use in the network adapter. We can’t know which chip is in use, unless you provide us with more information.

Please post the output of the garuda-inxi command, so that we may be able to assist you with your inquiry.
