I'm having a really hard time trying to find the drivers for the Netgear AC1200 WiFi USB Adapter, model A6150. I need it for Ubuntu 18.04. Please, help.

I have tried to install an AC1200 Wifi adapterfrom dootoper I bought from Amazon. Got the driver from this github https://github.com/gordboy/rtl8812au

This works every time I install it.. I did this a few times because of every time an update is installed the wifi adapter stops working.

I have an old wifi adapter which isn't that fast like the new one, so I switch sometimes to the old one.

I have this installed thru a usb extra cable to have a better signal same as the new one.

The cables are different: one is a usb3 highspeed extension cable, the other an old usb 2 extension cable.

The funny thing I now found out is, that the new AC1200 Wifi adapter always works with the old cable every time!
