Can't connect to 5GHz network with RTL8812AE

Hi everyone,

I can't connect to 5GHz network with my brand new ASUS PCE-AC51 and 2.4 GHz speed is at maximum 8 Mbit/s.  I guess the problem is related to lack of firmware and something wrong with wpa_supplicant.  I am using netctl in order to connect to wifi networks.  I also applied this patch https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commi … 3fe339162b but no luck.

03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8812AE 802.11ac PCIe Wireless Network Adapter [10ec:8812] (rev 01)

Re: Can't connect to 5GHz network with RTL8812AE

Did you find a solution to this problem?  I'm getting extremely slow speeds too with the same card.

What are the output of ip link and of iw phy   ?
