TP-Link AC600 Archer T2U Nano driver for Ubuntu 18.04

I am looking for a driver for the TP-Link AC600 Archer T2U Nano, on Kubuntu 18.04 (kernel version 4.15.0-51-generic).

$ lsusb
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 2357:011e TP-Link 802.11ac WLAN Adapter
$ inxi -N | grep "TP-Link" Device-3: TP-Link 802.11ac WLAN Adapter type: USB driver: usb-network

I already tried different drivers, none of them worked.

For a more stable driver, try this:

sudo apt install git dkms
git clone
cd rtl8812au
sudo make dkms_install

For the T2U with ID 2357:011e do

sudo apt install git dkms
git clone
cd rtl8812au-1
sudo ./dkms-install.sh

Secure Boot will need to be disabled. The github repo name is a little misleading as the source code supports rtl8812au, rtl8814au, and rtl8821au

With recent changes you will need to

sudo apt install git dkms
git clone
cd rtl8812au
sudo make dkms_install

This code doesn't include the rtl8814au for that you need

sudo apt install git dkms
git clone
cd rtl8814au
sudo make dkms_install

For the TP-link AC600 Archer T2Uv3 (2357:011f): choose v5.6.4.2 of the driver from aircrack-ng. With the stable v5.3.4 it seems to function correctly, but disconnects randomly every ~5 minutes. (Ubuntu 16.04)

Here is a link that addressed issues I was having thanks to an update from Jags:Driver for the TP-Link AC600 Archer T2U Nano, on Kubuntu 18.04 Previous fix from June 6 didn't work for me

sudo apt update
sudo apt install dkms
git clone -b v5.6.4.2
cd rtl8812au
sudo ./dkms-install.sh
