This works with Kali and monitor mode

Instructions are a bit lacking for Linux - lost a star here as there are no instructions for Linux. But I can confirm, despite other comments, that this works great with Kali and you can use monitor mode. Also a little lost by the smell of the installation manual. Very permanent ink or something!

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks

Not compatible with Kali Linux.

I accidentally bought this adapter thinking it used the Realtek AR8812AU chipset. Having tried using it now I believe it can use any of the other AR8812 chipsets. I installed the appropriate drivers on my Kali machine (I'm currently using an Alfa adapter with an AR8812AU chipset and it works great). Unfortunately I will be returning this wireless adapter.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • No

Worked with no problems for my Raspberry Pi 4 streamer

I use the metal case from Flirc which while great at maintaining RPI kills the already poor wi-fi on these minis. The addition was immediately recognized in the Ropieee OS version of Arch that I use for audio streaming. Your results may vary. My download speed went from 50Mbps to 250Mbps with no dips. All my applications now recognize my PI.

Pros
  • Complete kit
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

works great with USB network adapters

The software looks the same as it does in Windows XP, which I found odd, but you only see it once. After going through about 4 others we tried this (I thought it would be just as bad to be honest) but so far we've had one on the basement computer for about a year and a half and another on the upstairs computer for about half a year. a year and both still work great. Internet speed is a few MB faster than what we pay for, but I'm not complaining lol.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Volume

Good signal reception in a weak signal area

I use it to get a 5G signal from quite a distance and when the signal is active it works fine. I get frequent signal dropouts due to the poor service of the Wi-Fi system I'm on, but it adapts very well to dynamic environments. I keep a separate b/g/n enabled to compensate for the drop in /ac and this keeps my internet pretty stable. Good product, fast shipping. I recommend both the seller and the product.

Pros
  • Good build
Cons
  • Some minor things

Realtek RTL8812BU USB3 Wireless Adapter works great and is very easy to install. That means I just plugged in the antenna that comes with the USB3 WiFi dongle and connected it to my 7 year old Dell XPS 8700 desktop PC. My Windows 10 system recognized the adapter and boom, it was ready to use. It comes with a small driver disk; However, I didn't have to use it. Windows automatically found and installed the drivers. In Device Manager, I disabled the existing built-in Wi-Fi adapter, which only…

Pros
  • even old fashioned
Cons
  • neutral
