I'm trying to install the tp-link WN823N network adapter. I keep getting errors on the terminal. I don't understand what I should do to fix those errors.
I'm following the manual from the tp-link:

ellie@mint:~/Downloads/TL-WN823N_US_V3_160315_Linux/Driver$ I'm a new user on Linux. It's my main system. I run Linux Mint Debbie LMDE 4.19.0-12-amd64.
I know the manual in based on Linux Mint 18, I also tried the Kali version which I know is based on Debian but no luck with that as well.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!
