Some times I don't like the blinking of the LED, so do we have a way to turn it off?

Hi CoolShou:

Thank you very much for the effort and providing an updated RTL8814AU driver!! However, I hv the following Error when making the files, pls. take a look when you hv time. Thank you!!

• Note: I m using Edimax AC7833UAC USB wifi stick, also hv issues(other providers' Linux Drivers) on 5Ghz paring with Asus AC86u router - Cannot Activate Connection

here is the compile warning output:

Thank you very much man!!! :D

The latest fedora kernel (5.4.14-200.fc31.x86_64+debug) would not load the module.
Last known good kernel (5.4.12-200.fc31.x86_64) with working wireless

Attached is the compile error/warning output:
make.log

Attached is the dmesg output:
dmesg.log

I have compiled and installed the driver. Trying to connect to the wifi network don't work. The modifications for the 4.19 kernel may be the problem. may linux distro is fedora 28.
On a working version of the driver the connection speed is only 54Mbps and this seem for me to be a general problem.
