I recently purchased the BrosTrend Linux WiFi Adapter, and I must say I am thoroughly impressed with its performance. This little device has made a significant difference in my overall computing experience, and I couldn't be happier. First and foremost, the installation was an absolute breeze. As someone who has struggled with setting up other WiFi adapters in the past, I was pleasantly surprised at how straightforward the process was. It seamlessly integrated with my Linux system, and within a matter of minutes, I was up and running with a stable and reliable internet connection. The signal strength and speed of this adapter are exceptional. I live in a large house with multiple walls and floors, and I was worried about the range and signal quality. However, the BrosTrend Linux WiFi Adapter has exceeded my expectations. It provides a strong and consistent connection throughout my home, and I no longer experience any lag or buffering when streaming or gaming. What's also worth noting is the compact and sleek design of this adapter. It's small enough to remain inconspicuous when plugged into my laptop, and it doesn't obstruct other USB ports. Plus, it doesn't get in the way when I'm on the move, making it perfect for both home and on-the-go use. I also appreciate the driver support for Linux. BrosTrend has done an excellent job ensuring that their product is compatible with a wide range of Linux distributions, which is a big plus for users like me who prefer open-source operating systems. Overall, the BrosTrend Linux WiFi Adapter has made a significant difference in my daily computing activities. It's reliable, fast, and hassle-free. If you're a Linux user looking to improve your wireless connectivity, I wholeheartedly recommend giving this adapter a try. It's a fantastic investment that will undoubtedly enhance your online experience.

I've been a Linux geek for thirty years and I have a long list of experiences with hardware that was supposed to work well with Linux but either didn't do that or only did it after after hours (and hours!) of frustrating research and experimentation. So it's nice when a product shows up that is just as advertised and a good performer as well. This adapter qualifies on both counts. I needed an additional adapter for a laptop I use for WiFi systems analysis and this one has good reviews and recommendations. Also, BrosTrend is known in the Linux world as a solid company. So I bought it. I ran into a glitch installing the driver, didn't immediately understand the problem, and clicked on over to the troubleshooting area on the BrosTrend website. Bingo. In, literally, a few seconds the site indicated that the problem was because UEFI Secure Boot was enabled. I should have noticed (I've only been doing this stuff forever!) but I didn't. Thanks to the thoughtful and well-written troubleshooting info on the BrosTrend site, I fixed the issue with a few keystrokes. The adapter works exactly as expected and I have another helpful gadget for analyzing the messy and crowded wireless networking universe. The adapter is recommended and BrosTrend is *highly* recommended.

Works great with Arch linux right out of the box. Supports monitor/injection and is fast and efficient, especially for the price. 100% solid product.

Edit 2: The seller ended up refunding my money, so I can't find any fault with their support. Edit: The adapter worked great for about a week or two, then slowly started becoming less and less reliable. My connection would fail, and I would have to re-seat the adapter, or reboot. The activity light would either come on solid blue, or turn off entirely. Today the adapter stopped working entirely. It initially looked like the provided extension cable might have been part of the problem. I removed the extension cable and plugged the adapter directly into the back of my PC. That initially brought it back to life, when it hadn't been working at all. However, within a few minutes, the light turned solid blue and the adapter stopped working. My prior adapter, an internal TP-Link card, began constantly dropping the connection, and would take forever to reconnect. The problem seemed to start when I moved the router a little further away from my desktop, but no other wi-fi device was affected, even in the same room, and signal strength was still over 50%. I decided to see if I could find a better, more stable adapter. I was somewhat hesitant to buy from a brand I had never heard of, but BrosTrend seems to be the only company that has wholeheartedly embraced the linux community, so I was willing to give them a chance. So far, I have not been disappointed. The install was easy, although you do need to have an internet connection to download the media. Now that I'm up and running, I have not lost connection once, and my signal strength and download speeds are consistently better than they had been before. If you have reservations about buying from a smaller brand, it's worth remembering that all of the wi-fi adapters on the market, no matter who sells them, all use chipsets from the same five or six vendors. In this case, it's a Realtek chipset, and they make chipsets for all the big companies.

Produit efficace avec un câble de rallonge pratique, qui aurait cependant gagné à être souple et tressé, il est un peu raide et déstabilise le support. Cette clé est détectée et marche automatiquement avec les noyaux linux 6.5 et plus récents, avec le driver standard rtw88_8822bu. Par contre pour les distributions plus anciennes (par ex Debian 12) il faut installer le driver fourni par le constructeur sur son site deb.trendtechcn.com mais il fournit un script automatique pour cela. Aussi, la clé marche parfaitement avec "network-manager", l'interface graphique standard des bureaux linux. Mais en mode serveur sans écran, il faut aussi l'utiliser, via la commande "nmcli", en évitant que "network-manager" ne vienne perturber votre config réseau existante. En effet, je n'ai pas réussi à me servir des autres commandes non graphiques telles que iwconfig, iw, wpa_supplicant, ... qui ne retournent pas d'erreur mais n'établissent pas la connection. Bref, aucun souci si vous l'utilisez sur un desktop linux moderne. Sur des serveurs, cela demande d'un peu plus se pencher sur la configuration si vous n'utilisez pas "network-manager".

Works great.

Con esta antena si funciona el WiFi. Fácil de configurar en Linux mint y en Windows funciona directamente.

Fué muy fácil de instalar, no tuve necesidad de hablar con soporte las mismas instrucciones, me funciona en Debian 11

Arc linux kurulu PC’ye USB’ye takar takmaz çalıştı. Driverını benim kurmama gerek kalmadı. Çekiş gücü ve ping değeri de çok iyi. Yaklaşık bir aydır kullanıyorum bir problem yaşamadım.
