IMPORTANT! To use this WiFi adapter with Raspberry Pi OS, you will need to install a driver. This adapter will not automatically work without driver installation!

We have documented the installation process for you here.

Please note that this driver works as of 18/09/2023 however changes to Raspberry Pi OS or the driver repository are out of our control and may break at any time.

If the on-board WiFi antenna on your Raspberry Pi isn't giving you enough range, this dual-band 2.4GHz/5GHz USB 2.0 WiFi adapter is a great option.

The adapter is dual-band meaning it can connect to a 2.4GHz or 5GHz network, and supports the 802.11ac standard (3 times faster than 802.11n networks).

The USB 2.0 adapter features an LED status light.

Compatible with both the Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 3B+/3.

Installation

The adapter requires driver installation which will take around 5 minutes. See our installation guide here.
