“Generally works great. Worked immediately on an RPi 2 (running bullseye, Lite version) with zero configuration changes.
So far (about two weeks) it has maintained a consistent connection, which is a huge improvement on the rtl8192 based adapter I previously had.
I have had a few issues when trying to bind the Pi to a particular wireless access point (we have a mesh, ASUS hardware) - it seems something in the wireless networking stack (possibly not the adapter or its driver’s fault! I do not know) doesn’t understand all the ECSA announcements, and the Pi ends up timing out trying to connect to the wrong AP.
But I have found letting it roam and setting up wpa_supplicant to background scan on weak has been an effective workaround for keeping a reliable connection.”
“This is an exceptionally good product , it has good connectivity ,is very easy to use and is plug and play for the Raspberry Pi .
The only negative thing is that it did not find my NOS wifi immediately, I am not too sure why this was .
I'm thinking that my wifi may have been 5ghz which this product does not support. Luckily I managed to get it working in the end. I highly recommend this wifi adapter to all Pi ( and other computer ) users who have 2.4 GHZ wifi . Good price too”
“I'm am not a computer geek, and new to the Pi. Having said that, I was able to plug the WiFi adaptor in and get it working within a couple of minutes. Building on that, I have been able to link to my laptop with VNC and set up filesharing between the two computers using this, and continue my home automation project from latop. Brilliantly neat bit of kit. Needed a bit of Web tutoring to get it working, but no real issues.”
