## Description

Review: Works with Linux out of the box. Recommended. - Absolutely great product for Windows 11 and LINUX. The antenna is double normal size and penetrates signal through my three layers of bricks over a twenty foot area. Installation was easy and up and running on both system types after you have entered router passkey. You might have to restart the computer before WIFI is connected . I’ve tried cheaper standard dongles with LINUX and it’s a pain to set them up. Good value for money item, sturdy and comes with installation cd and instructions. but I didn’t need them.
Review: worked like a charm. - Great WiFi Adapter, I was having issues with the on-board WIFI from the RPI4B and bought this and it made the world of difference. Installation was a breeze, plug in the adaptor and run a command line and job done. I never had compatibility issues with using this on bookworm and bulleye (2024-10-22) over all i found this good value and had great software compatibility.

If you're using Linux, then this is a very good option that works out of the box. I have had so much trouble with TP-Link adapters, but I plugged this in, and it worked straight away on multiple distros.
