Comment 2 for bug 1991508

Please find below the testplan I was implying:

$ sudo apt install licheerv-rtl8723ds-dkms
Preparing to unpack licheerv-rtl8723ds-dkms
Module licheerv-rtl8723ds-1.0 for kernel 5.17.0-1003-allwinner

Building initial module for 5.17.0-1003-allwinner
Done.
8723ds.ko:
Running module version sanity check.
 - Original module
   - No original module exists within this kernel
 - Installation
   - Installing to /lib/modules/5.17.0-1003-allwinner/updates/dkms/
depmod........................

The build of the module will take quite some time (more than 1hour..).

$ sudo ip link set dev wlan0 up

And finally use the following netplan configuration to connect to your AP (to store at /etc/netplan/wifi.yaml for example):

network:
 version: 2
 renderer: networkd
 wifis:
   wlan0:
     dhcp4: yes
     dhcp6: yes
     access-points:
       "YOUR_SSID":
         password: "YOUR_PASSWORD"

$ sudo netplan apply

Finally, we should be connected to the AP:

$ ip a
