True AR9271 - Works as an AP
One of my projects is maintaining a WiFi connection library for embedded devices, and as part of this project I wanted to set up a way to automatically test changes. Since the library connects an embedded device to WiFi, I needed a way to spin up a WiFi network on the fly to test with. Using this WiFi adapter and a Raspberry Pi, I now have automated testing set up.This works perfectly in Raspberry Pi OS (Raspbian), has a true AR9271, and can function as an AP. If you need a Linux-compatible USB WiFi adapter, this is the one for you.

Great product with a lot more uses than you might think.
This thing is awesome. I used it for my cybersecurity training, but it also is just a great wifi antenna for all kinds of other projects. I set up a raspberry pi with older wifi security in order to get my psp online again when no modern routers will even connect to it anymore. Can also use it for the same thing to practice cybersecurity projects against older wifi security standards. Great product with a lot more uses than you might think.

Decent, but the USB is too short
I bought this because I was having issues with a different chipset and specifically wanted to use an Atheros. It worked perfectly. Yes it's 2.4 ghz only, but that's fine for day to day use. It picks up many, many more stations than my realtek adapters that support 2.4 and 5ghz do according to inssider, and it works much more smoothly.Driver installation is a pain in Windows, but the real problem is that the plastic case covers too much of the USB plug, so it will not plug fully in to some USB ports. Fortunately, the case is not glued and I don't care about the cap, so I pulled the case apart, and trimmed off the part that the cap snaps on it, and now it fits perfectly. The cap still works too, it just doesn't snap into place.

EXCELLENT FOR WINDOWS OR LINUX DISTROS
Works perfectly and as advertised. If you intend to use it in Windows 10/11, install it then go to Windows Update | Additional Drivers to install the required Windows driver. There is NO need to search for the manufacturer's website and download from there. Windows will install the proper driver under Windows Update. The 1-star reviews about no driver are simply wrong.My GNU/Linux Parrot OS Security Edition distro running under VMWare recognized it immediately and connected...no external driver had to be installed.Under Parrot, I commanded Monitor mode in Airgeddon and proceeded to test against my wireless router. Worked perfectly. Promptly received a handshake using attack vector #2.Inexpensive. Works as designed. Great value.

You get what you pay for
FORGET ABOUT IT. The USB adapter does not work. At all. I went through the process of downloading the drivers from the website listed. And it worked ONCE. After unplugging it and plugging it back in, it stopped working. I only bought this because the course I’m taking requires it and the course teacher refuses to help trouble shoot with anyone almost as if they’ve abandoned the class and yet they “updated” it just this month how lame. The course teacher also lists a website which is their own that lasts this same USB as a recommended adapter but for WAY more than is listed here. Avoid the scams and Avoid any coding classes on sale and just exhaust all the free resources you can, you will actually learn something instead of falling into a money trap.

The Legendary Atheros 9271 -- It still does not ever disappoint!
The Atheros 9271 has been known for about 10 years as the best hacker friendly USB wifi chipset. Then they disappeared, they designed a disappointing hacker unfriendly v.2...this is the first brand new batch I've seen in at least 7-8 years. 12$ and they still out-perform a few of my Alfa's (cost about 5-6X the $). This isn't the best housing, it seems cheap plastic but it came with plastic film still on it, LEDs work, and the chipset...on 2.4ghz (and only 2.4ghz) I still don't think there's a better toolbag USB wifi to have around for "auditing" pulls handshakes extremely quick, injection is still probably more reliable than modern expensive cards...I was amazed at the range of "auditing" it is still amazing at. For a daily driver, for anything, or for nothing...for 12$ you could buy these and stash them away till this new batch disappears and sell them for 50$ a pop to people in cyber sec communities.

Linux Mint 20: NO driver(s) needed. Plug and play!
While plug and play dongles are common for Windows, those of us who prefer Linux have to deal with the many dongles that require VERY complicated and/or unreliable installation. This device is economical, well-made, and is truly plug and play.What a relief! To be fair this unit is made to the 802.11n standard (150 mb/s, 2.4Ghz), but that is quite enough, not to mention - again - plug n play, and inexpensive. I spent hours trying to find a faster PnP unit, but there isn't one. It speed tests fine, good numbers, solid and reliable.Add to this it's antenna, easy disassembly, this is a unit you can carry with you and use to replace a failing WIFI adaptor, or to amplify signal in sketchy locations.

This is a TP-Link TL-WN722N v1 (Atheros AR9271)
For anyone searching for a TP-Link TL-WN722N v1, this is it in an unbranded form (drivers installed show it as a v1 chip set (Atheros AR9271).No issues to report so far. Build quality is exactly as you would expect at the price point :)
