Overview of WiFi USB adapters for Linux

Questions

  • What about Qualcomm? The main reason for the limited support is that there are only 2 companies supplying chipsets for USB Wifi adapters - Mediatek and Realtek.
  • What about Broadcom?
  • Are Qualcomm QCA9377-7 and mt7662u supported?
  • Is TP-LINK TL-WN823N v2 with RTL8192EU supported? (compared to v1 with RTL8192CU) --> Yes, seems to be the case. See https://wiki.openthinclient.org/omd20202/knowledge-base/unterstuetzte-wlan-sticks
  • Why is Realtek RTL8192cu the only chipset with a Linux In-Kernel driver?
  • Letztendlich alle Geräte von Amazon.de testen (Suche und Topseller)
