This is BT4, not BT5; WiFi adapter not showing up with Windows 21H1 update

I recently installed it on an updated mini pc. It's clunky. However, I had no trouble using the USB device in the ports next to or below it, but that's something to keep in mind. I plugged it into a USB port and Windows recognized it and immediately loaded the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi drivers so I didn't have to use the minidisk that came with it. However, it's not Bluetooth 5 as advertised, it's Bluetooth 4. Signal strength was good, but I was only 3ft from the internet box and didn't test it at a sufficient distance. My Bluetooth speaker connected with no problems. This is where things take a bad turn. Windows Update 20H2 was installed on the PC during the installation. After I manually updated to Windows Update 21H1, Bluetooth continued to work, but the Wi-Fi adapter stopped working. It doesn't even show up in device manager under network adapters. Luckily I had a USB Wi-Fi adapter so I got my internet back. Due to this turn of events I cannot recommend this product and I am not happy with this purchase.

Pros
  • Bluetooth 5.0 adapter
Cons
  • Some bugs
