Best affordable wifi adapter I have ever owned. Great for Kali Linux

PROS:

This is an excellent wifi adapter for the price. Especially if you are a Kali Linux user and enjoy pentesting. I also use this with my Windows 10 laptop and it worked flawlessly with the first plugin. Overall I will likely buy a couple more in the future as their aren't too many small wifi adapters that can be used in monitor mode.

CONS:

None that I could find. The price to performance ratio was excellent.

OTHER THOUGHTS:

You should support Panda Wireless. They make great products for an excellent price. Do it!

Not Ununtu compatible

This wireless adapter is not Ubuntu compatible. Under Ubuntu 14.04, it became very hot and dropped the connection every few minutes. Finding a decent wireless adapter for Ubuntu isn't easy so I had to do some research. It turns out that Ralink devices like this one should generally be avoided. For good Linux compatibility, Atheros and Intel devices are considered to be more suitable.Read full review

Surprisingly fast, very reliable, amazing value.

I wrestled for quite a while with a netgear adapter that kept randomly shutting down (apparently a common complaint with many for their models), .The computer was often used for remote live video to watch pets so I needed better reliability. When I found this Panda rated the second best adapter among a dozen tested in a recent (2017) review, I was skeptical because of its low price.(Apparently so were the reviewers). But wow was I impressed. This adapter has not shut down once in the 3 weeks since installation, comes right back online after computer hibernation, and as a bonus is unmistakable faster in both initiating network connections and data transfer. Then when I had a question, I had no trouble finding a simple support email address on the manufacturer's website, and didn't have to wait long for a response. I never heard of this company before, but I sure hope they stick around.Read full review

Works with Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon, right out of the box.

Installed on a Dell Optiplex 780 running Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon.
Was pretty much plug and play. Did not need to do any kind of special installation trickery.
Has worked very well with few troubles.
Have been using this adaptor for a few months now, and it is still going strong.

Easy installion on Ubuntu 16.04 (64 bit)

No need for driver installation on Ubuntu 16.04 (64 bit). A few entries in the network connection dialogue box and it created a hotspot. For instruction google eg "panda hotspot installation ubuntu 16.04". One forgets about its existence. I mainly access it in the same room where the PC is but it works in adjacent rooms as well. Have not yet determined range limits.Read full review

Works Perfectly

Works perfectly on my old Dell PC running Linux Mint 18.3 It's basically plug and play, just type in your Wi-Fi pass code and you off and running. Nice signal strength out in my workshop as well with the antenna.Read full review

Reasonably priced, and it works

I'm running Windows 10, and I just plugged the thing into a free USB port and it worked right away. I didn't have to load a driver, as windows recognized it and loaded whatever was needed. I had to configure its network and gateway addresses like any other network interface, but that was routine and expected. I'm very pleased with it.Read full review

A very good deal

The antenna works well and is easy to use. It can be flattened for easy transport. The only downside is that it sticks out a couple inches from the port, which can sometimes get in the way in tight quarters, but that's not usually a problem for me.Read full review

Wifi adapter

Nice wifi adapter. Added it to a desktop computer, put the enclosed disc in and set up was very simple. It works great for what I wanted.

Panda 300mbps wireless USB adapter

Great deal! Works fine with Windows 10. So far it has not quit on me and no slow downs or stutters. My old wireless adapter was not rated for win 10 but I tried it anyway. It caused installation problems with the upgrade to win10. So, I traded out the Panda and I have had no problems at all. Fully recommend this when upgrading to win10.Read full review
