Works Great and Easy to Install Even in Linux

I gave this product a 5 star for two reasons. First, it works great! Second, it's support and very detailed directions for Linux users like myself is outstanding. They detail which Kernel versions already contain drivers. If the kernel version you are using doesn't already contain the driver, they offer simple directions to download and install the driver. In most cases like mine, (I use Linux Mint) they have a simple one line to copy and paste into your terminal and presto, good to go!

Works With Ubuntu 22.04. Follow The Easy Included Instructions.

Worked very well with Ubuntu 22.04. I did what I usually do, which is try to search the internet for how to install the driver in Linux. I wasted 40 minutes installing an outdated driver that probably wasn't working. I finally opened the package and found the little CD inside with a PDF with the very simple instructions to install the Linux driver directly from the manufacturer's website. You don't even need the little CD. There is a little slip of paper next to the CD with the URL for the simple Linux installation instructions. Go to their website and installing the driver under Linux takes maybe two minutes and it updates the repository on the computer so driver updates occur automagically.The twin antenna dual band USB WiFi adapter is far superior to the little 2.4 GHz WiFi dongle I had plugged into the front of my computer with a tiny built in antenna. Now my computer is seeing four times as many WiFi SSIDs. I'm thinking of putting a 3D print farm in a room on the other side of the house, a floor below off the basement, and this new WiFi adapter should allow me to manage that print farm from my office. The old slow dongle wouldn't have the range and the speed would make multiple video feeds problematic.

Several Scares with a Perfect Result

I brought the first scare on myself by ordering a product with only ONE review, something I virtually never do. But this device offered what I needed, so I took the chance. And I'm mighty glad I did.The Ethernet connection on my old PC (running KDE neon 5.13.1) had suddenly dropped from a download speed of 6 Mbps to a little over 1. Some tests indicated that the culprit was a degraded hardware component on the motherboard.My second scare came when the device arrived. The very attractive package was a blister pack you could actually open with your bare hands. However, the included Quick Installation Guide included instructions only for Windows and OS X. Uh, oh.A mini CD was enclosed and the Linux directory included a bewildering array of files, including PDFs and source code. Scare #3!I went back to the Amazon page and found this paragraph:Comes with an expertise Linux Support Ticket via email for installation on Linux OSes listed above, please send us an email at support@trend-tech.net.cn for help, please tell us your OSes type and order number in the email.My email got a fast response that attached a PDF installation guide. I was pleased to see that the guide WAs brief and very specific for Ubuntu/Debian systems. You execute a command that installs software needed to compile the driver and then does the compilation and installation of the driver.The procedure requires a wired connection to the Internet, which could be a problem. A link is provided that would enable you to download the .deb file on another machine. However, they recommend that you not use this approach unless you have to.After the prompt was returned I plugged the device in and it was immediately recognized by the system. I shut down the PC, disconnected the Ethernet cable, and rebooted. I used the KDE System Settings to add the woreless device.My "perfect result" is that I am once again getting downlaod speeds of over 6 Mbps.Update: After using this device for a month, here are some added observations. On my hard drive I have three Linux systems in separate partitions with the device working on all of them: Linux Mint-XFCE, KDE neon, and Lubuntu. Doing a major update that included the Linux kernel caused me to lose the connection with the device. Help from TrendTech support got me going again. I just had to execute two commands:sudo dpkg-reconfigure rtl8812au-dkmssudo modprobe 8812auToday I did similar updates with Linux Mint and KDE neon. The fix was again necessary with the former but not with the latter.I continue to be very pleased with my purchase.

Decepción con la velocidad de la antena: No cumple con lo prometido (1200 Mbps) - Ubuntu

Compré esta antena basándome en su ficha técnica, la cual indicaba una velocidad de hasta 1200 Mbps. Tengo una conexión a internet que alcanza los 900 Mbps, por lo que esperaba un rendimiento cercano a esa cifra. Sin embargo, la antena solo logra una velocidad de 43 Mbps, llegando en el mejor de los casos a 100 Mbps.Considerando que esta antena se conecta por USB, cuyo límite de velocidad en la versión 3.0 es de aproximadamente 600 Mbps, resulta incomprensible cómo la ficha técnica puede mencionar una velocidad de 1200 Mbps. Esta discrepancia entre la promesa y el rendimiento real es la razón por la que devolví el producto sin dudarlo. Claramente, la antena no cumple con la velocidad anunciada de 1200 Mbps.
