TP-LINK Archer T3U AC1300 Mini after Ubuntu update on 18.04.4 LTS

Question

Original Question

Three days ago my TP-LINK Archer T3U AC1300 Mini suddenly stopped working on after an automatic update of Ubuntu. Furthermore the system refused to completely shut down if the wifi stick was plugged in.

lsusb shows the stick but it does not work with the driver I installed previously

described here in the second answer

Proper way of installing wifi drivers (rtl8822bu)

I've tried to reinstall the driver but no success.

Also I tested this driver as suggested here in the accepted answer
