This is mostly for my own benefit when I invariably format a computer using these adapters and forget how to get wifi working again:

• TP-Link T2U Nano (AC600)¹
• TP-Link T3U Plus (AC1300)¹

Plug device in and ensure it is detected via lsusb:

For the T3U Plus, the ID is 2357:0138.

Workarounds for building S on 8GB RAM environment:

1. At the start of the build:
[ 99% 138/139] /mnt/ssd/lineage/out/soong/.bootstrap/bin/soong_build /mnt/ssd/lineage/out/soong/build.ninja
This used to take around 30mins, after enabling zram now it takes around 30secs (thanks to @kdrag0n for the zram idea) which is on par with what happens in 16GB RAM building environments

sudo apt install zram-config for installing zram-config package
sudo nano /etc/fstab and add a # in front of the swap disk if you have one and then reboot
After booting cat /proc/swaps to check if zram is enabled or not
