Fresh Install, Easy install with Linux, NO tech support needed.
I bought a refurbed Dell Optiplex 990 which came without wireless or Bluetooth capability. I have installed Linux Mint on it as a learning platform. My existing Windows based dongles worked (sorta), Mint tries to adapt to whatever wireless it finds. But neither my "no-name" POS or my elderly and slow Netgear dongle worked all that well.. Mint would spend a good hour connecting and disconnecting (trying different stuff, I guess) before it settled down to work slowly but properly. Heh, Heh, I wanted to LEARN! I got tired of all this and looked for a direct Linux support wireless dongle. Note: There isn't much out there. But I did find BrosTrend, which appears to go out of its way to support the Debian/Ubuntu line of Linux Distros. I had never heard of BrosTrend, but when I went to their web site, they impressed me with their professional looking and complete sales and support efforts. This isn't some fly-by-night junk vendor, this is a serious company that wants to make a good name for itself. It came with an install CD, but I didn't use it. I normally just download the latest drivers from the website and follow the instructions I find there, It's the best way to get the latest drivers and instructions. Installation was real easy for Linux you just copy the Install instruction you find on the Web page, then open the terminal on you Linux machine, paste the instruction, into the terminal Window, and press enter. It may ask you for your password that you use to boot your computer (Depends on what folder you open the terminal in). If so, just enter it and press enter again. After that, it takes about 2-3 minutes to install. Reboot your PC, and after the reboot, it will ask you for your network's security Password and connect to your home network. It's fast and stable, everything I was looking for. Highly recommended for experienced and Newbies alike.

Ottima chiavetta
La BrosTrend Linux Chiavetta WiFi USB AC650 è davvero un ottimo dispositivo di rete. La utilizzo su un PC dedicato a Linux e riesce a captare segnali anche piuttosto lontani, con velocità e potenza molto buone. L’installazione su Linux è semplice grazie al comando fornito dai produttori, mentre su Windows tutto avviene automaticamente, senza complicazioni. L'antenna della chiavetta forse è un pò troppo lunga, ma comoda da usare e costruita con materiali di buona qualità. In generale, offre prestazioni affidabili sia per Linux che per Windows, rendendola una scelta consigliata per chi cerca una soluzione versatile e funzionale.

Activo el wifi a la primera en Ubuntu 24
Después de probar otros 2 adaptadores con diferentes inconvenientes con mi Linux Ubuntu, este funcionó a la primer y sin necesidad de configurar nada ( solo la contraseña del wifi obviamente) Muy recomendado

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.

جرب المنتج أكثر من مرة قبل إرجاعه.
أول ما وصل المنتج وتثبت تعريفه على نظام لينكس كان نطاق المحول قصير جداً ويتأخر على ما يلتقط الشبكة وكنت أفكر أرجعه بس جربته عدة أيام أخر حتى أصبح نطاق المحول أوسع وأسرع. والآن أنا مسرور لشراء هذا المحول، شكراً.
