I've been searching for a USB WIFI adapter to allow my laptop to access the 5GHz band. The market seems to be dominated by Realtek but Fedora 29 doesn't seem to have drivers for the various chips. Found an adapter from BrosTrend that said it supported LINUX without noticing that the support was for the slow cycle DEBIAN. With a clue from support found the driver on github.

I was successful in getting the driver from

https://github.com/zebulon2/rtl8812au

to install on a Fedora 29 system with the 4.20 version of the kernel. Had to get the newer version from

https://github.com/gordboy/rtl8812au

for installation on a second Fedora 29 system running the 5.2 kernel. This version also installed on the newer 5.3 kernels.
