sudo mv wifi_dongle_driver.sh /usr/bin/install-wifi
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/install-wifi
sudo install-wifi

The above provided instructions have been tested with the following:

1. raspberry pi 3b+
2. 2019-09-26-raspbian-buster.img
3. TP-LINK TL-WN823N usb dongle

To manually add a wifi, go to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file and add the following:

network={
	ssid="ssid"
	psk="password"
	key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

Change the ssid and psk as per your wifi and save and exit.

To repeat a eap/phase 2 authentication wifi, add the following in the /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

network={
	ssid="Univ wifi"
	scan_ssid=1
	key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
	eap=PEAP
	identity="rollno"
	password="password"
	phase1="peaplabel=auto peapver=auto"
	phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}

Change the ssid, psk and identity as per your wifi and save and exit.

Note: Repeating a eap/phase 2 authentication wifi is illegal. Please do so at your own risk.
