Perfect purchase

Works perfectly with w11, raspi os and kali.Also works great with kismet.Comes with 2 antennas and 1 extension cable USB A female to male.

Quite expensive but it works well.

I have moved to fibre-to-the-house internet, with a design speed of 150 Mbps (million bits per second). With the old compact USB dongle, I was getting around 30 Mbps. With the new dongle I am getting 140 Mbps, so close to the speed that I am paying for.The product consists of a central dongle, two antennae that screw on, and a USB cable. The device sits on top of the computer tower, and connects to the computer USB port using the cable.The computer's operating system is Arch Linux (Endeavour OS). The dongle was automatically detected by the operating system.I recommend this USB adaptor.

Very good,works instantly with win10 and most linux.

AWUS036ACM Long-Range Wide-Coverage Dual-Band AC1200 USB Wireless Wi-Fi AdapterSold by: Amazon EUI should have bought one of these a long time ago.Much better if you use Linux distros but also good for Windows.I only found one distro that didn't work out of loads of different linux isos i have on my usb stick.That was because the kernel was old and didn't have this AWUS036ACM included.All the problems i was having i thought was down to recent linux updates but it was mostly related to using wifi dongles with realtek chips inside.Realtek does not really write good drivers ,just the bare necessities.Even though some good guys post drivers for realtek on github ,none of them are 100% perfect and i was always running into problems.This AWUS036ACM wifi adapter is included in the recent linux kernels so should work like plug and play.Same as win10.Very good.

Good, but

Generally speaking adapter is very good, signal strength is good and with Windows 10/11 works out of the box - no drivers needed.But if you planning to use it with the newest Kali linux it won’t work, it says that it is working with Kali 2020 but definitely not with 2024 still did not managed to install it.

Perfect Value for my money.

This Wi-Fi adapter is the best adapter I can recommend to any Cyber Security and Digital Forensic Analyst out there.

Works with Kali 2025 out of the box

Absolutely fantastic works out of the box with Kali Linux and the range is amazing. This card is so underrated for Kali linux use. It is compact yet extremely powerful!

Great WiFi dongle

Used with Linux, Kali, Ubuntu and OpenWRT. Little tricky but not impossible.Signal is crazy good, worked well with kismet. Worth buying if you know what it is and how to use it :)
