Hi guys,

I have an issue when trying to use TP-Link TL-WN821 as AP(Infrastructure 
Mode).

When I plug device to USB port I see in dmesg:

[  223.959068] usb 2-3: new high-speed USB device number 4 using ehci-pci
[  224.074513] usb 2-3: New USB device found, idVendor=0bda, idProduct=8178

lsmod:

rtl8192c_common        46137  1 rtl8192cu
rfcomm                 68979  10

Checked ls /lib/firmware and yes,I have it by default

ar3k
ar5523.bin
ar7010_1_1.fw
ar7010.fw
ar9170-1.fw
ar9170-2.fw
ar9170.fw
ar9271.fw


Why is it Realtek?????????? I need to use it with hostapd which doesn't 
support it as AP

Thank you very much for your time

well, it is realtek. It's hard to say why :)

TP-Link TL-WN821 has four versions, v4 is realtek:
see this page:
http://wikidevi.com/wiki/TP-LINK_TL-WN821N_v4

if you can, please update this wiki page, provide some images of this 
adapter, and if possible internal too.

Some thing like this will be great:
