I recently bought a TP-Link TL-WN823N wireless USB adapter and I cannot find any WiFi networks using nmcli. I am able to connect using Windows to my buildings network however running nmcli dev wifi lists no networks avaiable. The device is shown using ip link:

3: wlp3s0f0u4: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000

and with nmcli:

wlp3s0f0u4: disconnected
        "TP-Link TL-WN823N v2/v3"
        wifi (rtl8xxxu), B6:52:B0:C9:15:1A, hw, mtu 1500

However when I run nmcli d wifi list no networks appear. I have seen elsewhere that blacklisting rtl8xxxu could solve this however that also did not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated because this is driving me a bit crazy.

Figured this one out and it was ridiculously simple, just needed to get a network connection to download the rtl8192 package and blacklist the rtl8xxxu driver as before.
