Which one? What was the chip?
TP-Link AC600. I didn't buy it with Linux in mind, but I assumed it was popular enough that it should work.
Oops, this was meant as a reply to someone about the TP-Link AC2100 router in anothrr window, ugh. Too many google results open.
Let me google the chipset for that one if you haven't found drivers that work yet. For some of the Realtek based ones, there's some you can compile yourself by morrownr.
I did get it working but it took a lot of Googling and config file/terminal work.
If you ever need a wifi adapter that will definitely work with Linux (plus reviews!): https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi/blob/becbea2d5213438e25dc3d35f161e1a0d8a1b12f/home/USB_WiFi_Adapters_that_are_supported_with_Linux_in-kernel_drivers.md
