There is a newer version of 8812au driver – 5.2.20, I think it is the newest. If you know there is a newer one, please let me know.

To compile and install it:

1. If you have old rtl8812au installed, please remove it first. Leave no trace of it 🙂  
sudo rmmod 8812au  
go to the path where 8812au.ko is installed  
sudo rm 8812au.ko
2. Install build-essential from Dietpi-software(Looks like Dietpi-software is not able to install a complete build-essential, you need to install it with :sudo apt-get install build-essential)
3. Install git from dietpi-software
4. git clone [https://github.com/gordboy/rtl8812au](https://github.com/gordboy/rtl8812au)
5. apt-get download linux-headers-4.4.77-rockchip-ayufan-136
6. mkdir header
7. dpkg -x linux-headers-4.4.77-rockchip-ayufan-136\_0.5.15\_arm64.deb header
8. cd header/usr/src
9. sudo mv linux-headers-4.4.77-rockchip-ayufan-136/ /usr/src/.
10. cd
11. cd rtl8812au
12. ARCH=arm64 make
13. sudo ARCH=arm64 make install
14. Reboot and it should work now.
