PAU0A AC600 Dual Band (2.4GHz and 5GHz) Wireless AC USB Adapter - Win 7/8/10/11, Zorin, Mint, Ubuntu, MX Linux, Manjaro, Fedora, Rocky, Kali Linux and Raspbian

Worked exactly as I had hoped. I was able to get a 2009 Dell working with this usb wifi from Panda. It was easy to set up, and is small, so not obtrusive at all.

Works great.

Worked for my Linux PC without downloading any driver.

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS works out of the box, plug and play, no driver build needed. Immediately recognized within seconds could connect. Highly recommend...will take some time on quality and stability and repost but using on second floor of house, RAX29 Nighthawk is on first floor. 80 Mb/sec download could be better but this is likely ranging and power issue. Homelab PC without wifi built in so I just wanted to add wifi usb without hassle. The Panda has Mediatek chipset...important! Most of the other USB Wifi that work / don't work on Linux need driver building which is ok but not for novice to try and also chipset implementation and driver release which is so hit and miss because Realtek chipset is terrible. No development on this. Commits on Github and although fine driver...meh...I just want the thing to work and not go down the rabbit hole to config. I sent back two TP-Link to get here.

This wifi dongle is on a Jetson device with a Linux 4.9 kernel. Got the latest tarball from the Panda website and successfully built the drivers for it. Spent more time than I should have troubleshooting why it was not connecting the 5G radio and sometimes after connecting it would not stay long and would disconnect. The top advice on the web is weak signal if a wifi device behaves in this manner. I could not believe this to be case because the wireless router was in the next room separated by two back to back closets. Other devices in this same room have no problem and in fact some are much further away. Finally I moved the Jetson to the router's room and put it 2 feet away from the router. Now it works fine. Running: nmcli -f SSID,BSSID,CHAN,FREQ,RATE,ACTIVE,SIGNAL,BARS,SECURITY,DEVICE dev wifi list produced: SSID BSSID CHAN FREQ RATE ACTIVE SIGNAL BARS SECURITY DEVICE AtHome_5G D4:6E:0E:8C:E8:E6 36 5180 MHz 270 Mbit/s yes 75 ▂▄▆_ WPA2 ra0 The signal strength should be around 100, not 75. I recommend to NOT buy this device. Ridiculously weak signal reception.

When I received the package I inserted the CD which came with the dongle, and nothing. I clicked on a bunch of launch and .exe files within my file manager and nothing happened. I then turned to the printed install instructions which were dated 2017 and I was terribly confused and uncertain what to do. I then scoured the user manual and discovered that it told me, as an Ubuntu User, to consult my Linux manual. I then read other reviews and how others with more Linux knowledge than me used their terminals to enter commands to download and install the correct drivers and get the dongle to talk to Linux. I tried entering a few commands but got nowhere. I then watched a couple dated youtube videos and was just as lost. Finally, I emailed the company directly and told them I use the latest version of Ubuntu, at the time: 22.04.4 LTS, and gave them a description of my 7 year old computer's configuration including processor, RAM, and memory, and within a very short span of time I received a reply that read, "The Panda PAU0A adapter works out of the box on Ubuntu 22.04 and you don't need to install any driver for it. Just insert Panda into a good USB port on your computer, click the wireless icon in the task bar, select your network and enter your network password to connect Panda to your network." I did exactly that and voila, it worked like a charm. I wrote Panda back and urged them to include a cheap 2024 insert in their packaging which states exactly that for Ubuntu and other machines with the latest versions installed which truly allow for plug-n-play without having to resort to the Terminal and a bunch of command lines in esoteric Linux language. The speed and range are good to very good, and for the price, it's a great value.

Works great with Kali Linux. Had install the driver though.

Small form factor. Compatible with linux machines for monitor and injection mode.

Lo quería para redes 5G con 50 MBs y solo toma como 28 MBs, un día antes me llegó un tplink que si toma los 50MBs. Lo bueno del Panda es que es plug and play. Lo malo del tplink es que hay que instalar el driver, lo cual es algo complicado.

Excellent. Fonctionne parfaitement avec min 22.1

it works, but it only last one month and doesn’t work at all. The quality of this product is low and life is pretty short
