Seanmauch ком realtek bluetooth 5 0 driver rtl8671b
News: A new version of this driver is now available. Testing has shown the new driver to be a very solid driver in managed and master modes but additional testing and work is needed on monitor mode. Monitor mode works but there are some quirks. It may be an issue of documentation or there may need to be code changes. The work is ongoing. You are invited to help test and break in the new driver: 8821au-20210708
The plan is to discontinue this driver by the end of December 2021. This URL will then be used to provide basic chipset information and a link to the new driver so this URL is a good permanent bookmark. Please transition to the new driver as you are able to do so. Regards. Nick

Warning: Beware of "multi-state" USB WiFi adapters. Some USB WiFi adapters have proprietary Windows drivers onboard. When plugged in, they act like a flash drive or CDROM and on Windows will attempt to start installing the Windows driver. That won't work on Linux or MAC or any other non-Windows OS so the adapter sits there in flash drive or CDROM mode. The problem is that the state of the adapter has to be changed for the adapter to show up as the device that you expect, in this case, a WiFi adapter. Most modern Linux distributions ship with a utility called "usb-modeswitch" that will handle this issue for you if it has the correct information for your adapter. It is a good utility but if you buy adapters that are "multi-state," that is one more potential headache you may have to deal with when something goes wrong. Often you can indentify adapters that are "multi-state" as they are advertised as "free driver" or "free installation driver." If you are looking to buy a USB WiFi adapter for use on Linux, MAC OS, *NIX or anything besides Windows, it is a good idea to seek out single-state adapters.
Note: Some adapter makers change the chipsets in their products while keeping the same model number so please check to confirm that the product you plan to buy has the chipset you are expecting.
The installation instructions are for the novice user. Experienced users are welcome to alter the installation to meet their needs.
Temporary internet access is required for installation. There are numerous ways to enable temporary internet access depending on your hardware and situation. One method is to use tethering from a phone.. Another method to enable temporary internet access is to keep a wifi adapter that uses an in-kernel driver in your toolkit.
You will need to use the terminal interface. The quick way to open a terminal: Ctrl+Alt+T (hold down on the Ctrl and Alt keys then press the T key)
DKMS is used for the installation. DKMS is a system utility which will automatically recompile and install this driver when a new kernel is installed. DKMS is provided by and maintained by Dell.
It is recommended that you do not delete the driver directory after installation as the directory contains information and scripts that you may need in the future.
There is no need to disable Secure Mode to install this driver. If Secure Mode is properly setup on your system, this installation will support it.
Step 1: Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T)
Step 2: Update the system (select the option for the OS you are using)
Step 3: Install the required packages (select the option for the OS you are using)
Step 4: Create a directory to hold the downloaded driver
Step 5: Move to the newly created directory
Step 6: Download the driver
Step 7: Move to the newly created driver directory
Step 8: Warning: this step only applies if you are installing to Raspberry Pi hardware.
Run a preparation script
Step 9: Run the installation script (For automated builds, use NoPrompt as an option)
A file called 8821au.conf will be installed in /etc/modeprobe.d by default.
This file will be read and applied to the driver on each system boot.
To edit the driver options file, run the edit-options.sh script.
Documentation for Driver Options is included in the file 8821au.conf .
Removal of the Driver
Note: This script should be used in the following situations:
- the driver is no longer needed
- a fresh start with default settings is needed
- a new version of the driver needs to be installed
- a major operating system upgrade is going to be applied
Note: This script removes everything that has been installed, with the exception of the packages installed in Step 3 and the driver directory. The driver directory can and probably should be deleted in most cases after running the script.
Step 1: Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T)
Step 2: Move to the driver directory
Step 3: Run the removal script
Recommended WiFi Router/ Access Point Settings
Note: These are general recommendations, some of which may not apply to your specific situation.
Security: Set WPA2-AES. Do not set WPA2 mixed mode or WPA or TKIP.
Channel width for 2.4G: Set 20 MHz fixed width. Do not use 40 MHz or 20/40 automatic.
Channels for 2.4G: Set channel 1 or 6 or 11 depending on the congestion at your location. Do not set automatic channel selection.
Mode for 2.4G: For best performance, set "N only" if you no longer use B or G capable devices.
Network names: Do not set the 2.4G Network and the 5G Network to the same name. Note: Unfortunately many routers come with both networks set to the same name.
Channels for 5G: Not all devices are capable of using DFS channels. It may be necessary to set a fixed channel in the range of 36 to 48 or 149 to 161 in order for all of your devices to work on 5g. (for US, other countries may vary)
Best location for the wifi router/ access point: Near center of apartment or house, at least a couple of feet away from walls, in an elevated location.
Check congestion: There are apps available for smart phones that allow you to check the congestion levels on wifi channels. The apps generally go by the name of WiFi Analyzer or something similar.
After making and saving changes, reboot the router.
Set regulatory domain to correct setting in OS
Check the current setting
If you get 00, that is the default and may not provide optimal performance.
Set it temporarily
Note: Substitute your country code if you are not in the United States.
Set it permanently
Recommendations regarding USB
Moving your USB WiFi adapter to a different USB port has been known to fix a variety of problems. Problems include WiFi going on and off as well as connections coming and going.
If connecting your USB WiFi adapter to a desktop computer, use the USB ports on the rear of the computer. Why? The ports on the rear are directly connected to the motherboard which will reduce problems with interference and disconnection that can happen with front ports that use cables.
If your USB WiFi adapter is USB 3 capable then plug it into a USB 3 port.
Avoid USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports if possible as almost all currently available adapters have been tested with USB 3.1 Gen 1 (aka USB 3) and not with USB 3.1 Gen 2.
If you use an extension cable and your adapter is USB 3 capable, the cable needs to be USB 3 capable.
Some USB WiFi adapters require considerable electrical current and push the capabilities of the power available via USB port. One example is devices that use the Realtek 8814au chipset. Using a powered multiport USB extension can be a good idea in cases like this.

The CD that came with the device listed RTL8671B, but it's not on Realtek's website. Instead the manual points you to:

Hope that helps someone.

Direct download and the popup window for 1.6.1015.3014 didn't initially work. I ended up needing to right click the link and select Save target as . For it to work for me on Windows 10, I unzipped the cab file into a folder and then used Device Manager to look at that folder. Worked like a charm.
