So I recently got GarudaOS working on my PC. The first main problem I encountered is my Netgear A6100 is not working. I ran a inxi -Fxz in terminal and it shows Netgear A6100 under network but drivers for it is listed as n/a. This is strange to me because this dongle worked out of the box for me on Ubuntu and Linux Mint.

Im currently using a workaround to get internet to my GarudaOS using a direct wired DSL connection, but its not sustainable because I have to disable wireless internet for the rest of my house to do this.

Is there any drivers I can get through terminal for my Netgear adapter or any workarounds? If not, can anyone recommend wireless adapters that work out of the box for Arch Linux? Frankly I would rather spend $15 on a new dongle if this is going to take a whole day tinkering just to do a workaround.

All advice and recommendation are appreciated.

Seems the A6100 uses the realtech rtl8811au module

here is a post with a guide. it requires git to download

I hope this helps.

Unfortunately the guide is made for Debian/Ubuntu users.
I managed to download the driver with git (i think) but none of the rest of the code is recognized by Arch.

You know what to search for...

All the best.
