Do you have specific 8811cu based adapters that you can recommend?

Since the 8811cu has a in-kernel driver these days, even if performance is not good yet, I thought I would go ahead and add a 8811cu section to the in-kernel list. Main Menu item 2.

So far I have only added the section and made some comments that adapters would be coming in the future. I have 2 adapters I can add to the list. Do you gents have any adapters you can recommend? With links to a place where it can be purchased?

I am limiting the adapters for the list to ONLY single-state / single-function adapters. I'm not interested in mutli-state adapters or multi-function (wifi plus bt) adapters as I have seen too many people have problems with them. On the other hand things are mostly quiet when it comes to users with single-state / single-function 8811cu adapters.

Let me know what good adapters are out there.

I have been using a Mercusys AC650 with a model number MU6H with a 5dBi antenna and advertised as 433 Mbps on 5 GHz and 200 Mbps on 2.4 GHz.

Is this it?

I'm only going to post adapters that are single-state and single-function as they are generally rock solid. I've seen to many problems with multi-state and multi-function (wifi and bt) adapters.

Can I get you to confirm that this adapter is a single-state adapter? To be sure, you can follow the below guide and after turning off usb_modeswitch and rebooting, the adapter comes up and works normally, then it is single-state.

How to deactivate usb_modeswitch:

$ sudo nano /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf

Change

DisableSwitching=0

to

DisableSwitching=1

Then reboot
