You can install the driver this way. Connect to Internet some other way and run in terminal

sudo apt-get install git dkms

git clone https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux.git

sed -i 's/#MODULE_VERSION#/0.1/' rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux/dkms.conf

sudo dkms add ./rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux

sudo dkms install -m 8812au -v 0.1

Then insert your dongle.

First of all, Pilot6, thank you very much for providing this.

I ran into some challenges while installing the repository. If you experience similar issues, please feel free try the following solution that worked for me (note, this has enabled to install the drivers and I have not tested the functionality yet):

cd /usr/src

sudo cp -r rtl8812au-#MODULE_VERSION# 8812au-1.0

sudo dkms install -m 8812au -v 1.0

If the other solutions have been tested and do not seem to work. Try the following (update your network interfaces):

sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

Remove the standard configurations. Check using dmesg which interface is being used (eth0, eth1, etc.) and add the settings for this interface;

#auto eth0

#iface eth0 dhcp inet

auto eth1

iface eth1 dhcp inet

My issue had to do with the TP Link UE300 usb to ethernet 3.0 adapter which was recognized by ubuntu linux but it did not function. After installing the updates as suggested by @Pilot6 and updating the network interfaces, the adapter started functioning.
