GNU/Linux Debian Bookworm TP-Link Archer TBE6500U/UH Driver Setup Guide
How to Install TP-Link Archer TBE6500U/UH BE6500 Wi-Fi 7 Wireless 802.11be Driver on Debian Bookworm 12.x GNU/Linux – Step by step Tutorial.
And the Debian Bookworm TP-Link Archer TBE6500U/UH Adapter is based on the Realtek RTL8912AU Chipset.
Linux support limited: community RTW89 driver provides basic RTL8912AU operation but lacks MLO.
Without MLO it can’t aggregate links across bands, so peak throughput, latency improvements and multi-band resilience are lost.
Track RTW89 development or choose adapters with in-kernel Linux drivers to get full Wi-Fi7 features.
In case to check your Adapter Chipset see: How to Check Wireless Device ID on GNU/Linux.
Finally, this info is valid for all others Debian-based Distros like:

- MX Linux
- Deepin
- Parrot
- antiX
- SparkyLinux
- Q4OS
- Vanilla OS
- Netrunner
- Voyager Debian
