I'm trying to track down the correct Linux driver for the ASUS USB-AX56 wifi adapter - https://wikidevi.wi-cat.ru/ASUS_USB-AX56 lists it but w/o a probable driver.
ASUS themselves claim that it's compatible with Linux but don't offer a driver download on the product page: https://www.asus.com/Networking-IoT-Servers/Adapters/All-series/USB-AX56/HelpDesk_knowledge/ only a windows driver was on the CD in the box.
I've tried various RTL drivers available online (RTL8812AU, RTL8814AU, RTL88X2BU), but none are compatible.
Any ideas where I can get drivers that will work with this?
It identifies itself as a Realtek 802.11ax adapter:
