ok so since im not connected to wifi on my desktop, the best i can do is a picture of my screen but as i just found out i am not allowed yet to post images in this forum. so no inxi possible i guess. + i already tried finding a solution for my problem but it didnt work yet. thanks for the help though
Did you try or can you use tethering, but it works for 1 min.
Please no pictures from terminal and system settings.
Images can be read worse, are not searchable and copyable for further search.

unfortunately not (cant connect a cable) im in a bad place it seems.
Pictures consumes considerably more data volume then text. Connect the phone to the PC and copy the terminal text to it.

You have no USB C or A cable?
How do you charge your smartphone battery?
i am still working on transfering the .txt on my iphone as in being able to actually send it to you

im pretty sure i already have the right driver but i couldnt find a way to execute the setup to install it if that makes sense. so how do i actually get the driver to work?

@sethox, I’ve patched an updated driver. This package is orphaned, you can install AUR (en) - rtl8822bu-dkms instead, which includes my patch.
Seems you must wait for our Network specialists.
im crazy confused i cant load the patch bc the file types cant be copied to my usb drive so i cant load it on my desktop. also i dont know how to convert them back to their original form after making them a txt file. so yeeeaah i might be a bit too stupid for linux it appears.
Whats the responce for
journalctl -u NetworkManager | grep wifi
You could try install nmcli with ethernet on
and use it like
nmcli connection modify <Your Wifie> autoconnect no
maybe even restart your NetworkManager
systemctl restart NetworkManager
nmcli radio wifi off
nmcli radio wifi on
I mean, this are just a bunch of commands I would have tried.

- my wifi adapter seems to work a little bit because it can find all the wifis in my area it just struggles to actually connect
thanks a lot im gonna try these
In my opinion you should try this driver:
sudo pacman -S rtl88x2bu-dkms-git
Afterwards blacklist your current module:
echo "blacklist rtw88_8822bu" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rtw8822bu.conf
And reboot.
If that doesn’t work, delete /etc/modprobe.d/rtw8822bu.conf and remove the package:
sudo pacman -R rtl88x2bu-dkms-git
If rtl88x2bu-dkms-git is not found (maybe removed from Chaotic-AUR)
paru rtl88x2bu-dkms-git
Exit from the PKGBUILD preview with button q and confirm installation.
