Method 1: Using the kernel driver

The r8723au driver provides support for the Realtek RTL8723AU WiFi chipset. The RTL8723AU is the USB version of the Realtek 8723A chipset, with ID of 0bda:1724. Since the version 3.15 of the kernel, the RTL8723AU is supported in the staging drivers.

Step 1ː Configure and compile kernel

KERNEL
<M>   Realtek RTL8723AU Wireless LAN NIC driver  
[*]     Realtek RTL8723AU AP mode
[*]     Realtek RTL8723AU BlueTooth Coexistence
Note
The option "Realtek RTL8723AU Wireless LAN NIC driver" in the section "Device Drivers->Staging drivers" appears if the option "RF switch subsystem support" in the "Networking options" is enabled.
KERNEL
<M>   RF switch subsystem support  --->

Step 2: The gentoo package sys-kernel/linux-firmware is required.

root #emerge --ask sys-kernel/linux-firmware

Method 2: Using the lwfinger driver

root #git clone git@github.com:lwfinger/rtl8723au.git
root #cd rtl8723au/
root #make
root #make install
root #modprobe rtl8723au
