If you do not already have pamac-cli on your system, it can be easily installed. Pamac is the installer included on most Manjaro editions (except KDE). To make this guide as universal as possible with Manjaro, I am going to be using pamac as the command line installer. You will see various AUR helpers recommended in different guides and help threads on the forum. There are many different AUR helpers available to install packages from the AUR. The installation steps are similar for most drivers, so hopefully this guide will be of assistance no matter what type of adapter or driver you are installing. If you have an internal Realtek WiFi adapter and would like to use this guide, simply ignore the USB specific instructions. This guide was written specifically for Realtek external USB WiFi adapters using a DKMS driver version from the AUR. If you are installing a driver that is not a DKMS driver, you can simply omit the section regarding installing the linux-headers and dkms. Some drivers have slight install differences, but the examples can be modified to work with most AUR driver installs.
This tutorial is intended to be a general guide to installing Realtek DKMS WiFi drivers from the AUR.
The AUR is not an official part of Manjaro, and as such, you use it at your own risk. Users new to Manjaro should become familiar with the AUR (and its associated risks) before using the AUR on a regular basis. You should be aware that there are potential risks from installing software from the AUR. This tutorial will guide you through installing your Realtek WiFi driver from the AUR.
