I equipped the tx92 with external antenna connector and I had better connection then with attached WiFi antenna.

What about the internal PCB antenna. Does replacing with internal 8dbi PCB antenna make sense?
Antenna should help in some way.
I ripped my h96's off and it stopped receiving signals, now the wire attached to the antenna must be in perfect position to catch signals or else only the closest AP appears.
BUT, I'm not sure if replacing antenna with your own is feasible or not

I have been trying to compile 8812au.ko to work correctly with my device ID (0bda:0811). I can insmod the existing driver file but it does not recognize my device.

I have found new driver source here: https://github.com/gnab/rtl8812au
But I do not know how to find the kernel source and compile it myself. Is there anyone who can help me compile it?

Internal wifi makes this rom unusable for me. I have a FayTun USB adapter, and it works out of the box on CoreELEC.

Copied Files from Stock Rom to ATVx ROM (as per the WiFi porting guide by [mention]Nayam[/mention] )

1)Replaced all bin files
\level2\system\bin

2)Replaced all wifi files
\level2\system\etc\wifi

3)Replaced dhcpcd folder
level2\system\etc\dhcpcd

4)Replaced lib folder all files
level2\system\lib

Cleared cache through recovery on first boot.

And the good thing is that along with WiFI, my LED display was also working fine as on stock and It didn't required any patch file to be flashed...

Under PIE firmware from:
vendor/etc/bluetooth/*.* - all files
vendor/etc/wifi/*.* - files relevant for chip used
vendor/firmware/*.* - files for RTL chip, if used
vendor/lib/*.*
vendor/lib/modules/*.* - files relevant for chip used
