Whenever the USB WiFi plugged, my Arch become less responsive and networking doesn't work at all. No matter if I plug it before or after booting. The 'ip addr show' and 'nmcli dev show' never return. The USB WiFi is working fine on dual-boot Windows 10 with same machine. I am using the only driver available for Arch with 5.13 kernel: 8188fu-kelebek333-dkms-git. The upstream github page doesn't have issue section available so you guys are my only hope. This is some info I can gather:
