garuda-inxi: System:Kernel: 6.6.2-zen1-1-zen arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 13.2.1 - Pastebin.com
I would to install the drivers needed for this device
For info on your wifi chip and driver see here:
From the Chaotic AUR install the package below:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl88x2bu-dkms-git
After the driver is installed, run the command below in terminal:
echo "blacklist rtw88_8822bu" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rtw8822bu.conf
Reboot.
I altered your thread title to include your Wifi model as you posted your garuda-inxi on an external link. Hope you don’t mind.

You can use the GUI installer Octopi as you are using KDE, or pacman from the terminal:

the sudo part of the command won’t launch
Sorry, but without seeing the input and output of the command run, it never happened (according to the forum assistant’s rule book). 
You need to post both the input and the output of any command you run.

yup, you just created a conf file that prevents the kernel from loading the driver module that comes with the kernel, but because it just doesn’t work with your specific model it had to be blacklisted.
If you’ve followed tbg’s post #2 instruction you surely have installed the git driver
already ? for example by
sudo pacman -S rtl88x2bu-dkms-git
If not, do it now and then reboot.

On another topic @Steamrex25, why are you not simply using the Intel Wifi on your mobo.
Device-1: Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168NGW [Stone Peak] driver: iwlwifi
v: kernel pcie: gen: 1 speed: 2.5 GT/s lanes: 1 bus-ID: 29:00.0
chip-ID: 8086:24fb class-ID: 0280
IF: wlo1 state: up mac:
The onboard wifi adapter’s state is reported as up, so it should be functional. If the connection is flaky the Intel iwlwifi driver has quite a few options that can be applied to help improve its performance.
I was simply curious why you would want to use a Realtek USB adapter that requires installation of out of kernel drivers, when you have an Intel adapter with in-kernel driver support of comparable speed?

The speed of my Mobo wifi is trash, the usb adapter has better speeds
idk how to fix the speeds
Let’s not worry about that separate issue ATM.
Did you get the driver I recommended installed and then rebooted?
