Linux driver for RTL8814AU Don't buy this hardware. First, a word of warning if you are thinking of buying a product with this chip in: don't, unless you are prepared to put a considerable amount of work in yourself. More generally, don't buy any hardware that is not supported by the mainline kernel. Realtek RTL8812AU 8811AU Linux Driver with Aircrack-ng wep crack success.

Phoronix: Realtek Contributes New 'RTW88' 802.11ac WiFi Driver To The Linux Kernel Newer Realtek WiFi chipsets are about to see better hardware support under Linux thanks to Realtek contributing the new 'RTW88' driver to the mainline Linux 5.2 kernel. I've installed Linux Mint 18.2 on my ThinkPad E470. I can't connect to wifi as no wireless option shows up. I searched around and found an old post with the exact problems as mine - https://ubuntuf.
Hello all, Just felt I'd throw this out there as I had this issue so surely someone else will too. How to get the Realtek RTL8812BU driver installed on Kali (Kernel 4.19.28-2 at time of writing) From a 100% fresh install, connected to the internet (via NAT Network or whatever), run the following commands: apt update apt install bc -y. We currently have a fair amount of working drivers that cover most of the available wireless networking cards. However, they don't implement all features and may have some issues, due to various reasons like companies not providing specs.

This question already has an answer here:
I'm trying to install drivers for my Wifi on my HP All-in-one desktop. I've been told to show the output of the command 'sudo lshw -C network' so here it is:
Output from 'lspci -nnk | grep -A2 0280':

(This question is a duplicate of Wi-Fi not working on Lenovo ThinkPad E570 (Realtek RTL8821CE) but I was pleased that we eventually found a solution so will write up what worked for Haz.)
As far as I can tell, at the time of writing this, there is not yet a Wifi Driver for the Realtek RTL8821CE in the official Ubuntu Repositories.
Over on github there is a repository with an RTL8821CE driver aimed at kernels 4.14 and above and specifically for Arch Linux with no support provided for other Linux Distros: https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce
(Minor note: as of February 2019 tomaspinho is sadly no longer able to maintain the driver as he no longer has access to a computer with this chipset, and so a new maintainer may be needed, but the driver still works with Ubuntu 18.04 as at that time.)
It has, however, been reported to work just fine with Ubuntu 18.04.
The solution is taken directly from post #4 by Praseodym: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2398917 and will install a number of packages for building the wifi driver module (git, dkms, build-essential & linux-headers) and clone the git repository from tomaspinho.
DKMS is used because it's 'a system which will automatically recompile and install a kernel module when a new kernel gets installed or updated.'
Open up a terminal and type the following lines (You can cut and paste if you prefer):
After this is completed successfully, you should reboot and find that your Wifi is working.
You also want to make sure SecureBoot is Disabled in the BIOS settings or it won't let you load the unsigned self-complied kernel module.

The commands in the post just before this were correct except for the git pull. There is a username and password authentication requirement so you have to just go to the webpage -- https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce -- and download the .zip file. I then tried following through with changing the shell files to executable as suggested but when they ran there was a discrepency as to where the files needed to be located. (Im definitely not complaining, it can just be a bit confusing if you didn't really know what you were doing) The files need to be extracted to /usr/src/rtl8821ce-1.0.0 (make a new directory 'rtl8821ce-1.0.0' inside /usr/src) and THEN chmod +x dkms-install.sh, everything should work out like gravy from there.Thank you so much whoever wrote this script. I dumped about 600 dollars into this badass machine and was thinking the wifi wouldn't work. Cheers.
To be specific, the machine is a new HP Pavilion x360 2-in-1 with windows 10 and ubuntu studio 18.04.

@pHeLiOn's answer helped me out, but it wasn't enough. So here is exactly what I did to get it working on my HP.
Make sure to remove the driver if you have previously unsuccessfully installed it via
sudo ./dkms-install.sh and then the directory rm -rf rtl8821ce . It may be located in cd /var/lib/dkms/ , delete it there too.
Additionally I changed my PCIe Activate State Power Management as suggested in the github respiratory.
