What is the kernel version of the linux OS computer? 

 

For your information, the TL-WN821N has the driver for kernel 2.6.24 ~ <4.9.60.

Meanwhile, there is an installation guide existed on the zip file, once you decompress it, you will see it. 

 

Good day.

@Kevin_Z

I know, my kernel version is 4.18.0 but Ubuntu 18.04 it's been here for more than a year. So there's nothing I can do about this?

Cause there is no official driver for your linux OS pc, you can search the driver online with the chipset, which is Realtek RTL8192EU

 

May it help and have a good day.
