It has worked well on a PC I installed it on, but lacks the needed support for USB wireless out of the box.

USB Wireless works under one of two conditions:

1. Purchase an AC1200 based USB Wireless Card;
2. Learn how to compile the driver using MAKE (assuming the mfr has the Linux code available)

I opted to go with an AC1200 WiFi card installed in my machine and Ubuntu Linux 18 - 21 picked it up perfectly.

Good luck!

" USB Wireless works under one of two conditions: 1. Purchase an AC1200 based USB Wireless Card; 2. Learn how to compile the driver using MAKE (assuming the mfr has the Linux code available)"

Both my adapters are 802.11ac, 8811CU11 and 8812BU and both are supported as far back as Vista, thus should be supported out of the box under any OS, and having to compile my own driver simply does not translate into "desktop ready" and I am not that much in need. Installing Linux on this old Dell Optiplex 755 (2.33Ghz CPU and 4GB ram) is a rainy day project right now.
