EDUP USB 3.0 WiFi 6E Adapter for PC, AXE3000, Mt7921au, 802.11ax, Tri-Band 6GHz/5GHz/2.4GHz, USB Wi-Fi Dongle Wireless Network Card, Support Windows 11/10 (Install Driver) & Linux (Plug and Play)

The adapter works in Linux out of the box (I use Raspberry Pi 5). 5 GHz connection is very stable even when the signal is week (-78dB separated from the router by two thick concrete walls, many APs creating interference). This adapter outperformed my other adapters and surprisingly even Asus router in WISP mode in terms of speed and stability. 2.4 GHz band worked as expected. I couldn' t very get very good performance on 6 GHz band even in the same room with the router, but I don't have many other 6E devices to compare, just a router and this adapter. I would recommend this adapter solely based on the ease of installation (plug&play in linux), good performance in 2.4 and 5GHz bands, and seller's excellent and helpful customer service. I think it is a good value for money and will be durable when handled with care.

Use this strictly for my penetration testing needs. I have an m1 MacBook Pro and as you may or may not know, Apple locks these things down pretty well. It's not like the good old Intel-based MacBook days where you could just boot whatever you wanted. So in order to get Kali up and running, I had to acquire the ARM-based variant and load up VMware fusion. Once in the VM, the internal wifi from the MacBook can only be bridged making monitor mode impossible so you need an external Wi-Fi adapter such as this one. Now, with the super long backstory out of the way, let's talk about this adapter. It's great! I plug it in and it's immediately recognized by both the host and the VM and the range in this this is superb! I can pick up my Wi-Fi about 10m further away than I can with my internal adapter. As far as I read, I think the wifi 6 spec only works in Linux out of the box, but can work in Windows with customized drivers. But it works great in Kali. Plug and play. And the removable antenna are great so I can attached my various other longer range antenna for testing long range equipment. Highly recommended.

I have extensive experience with computers and was an IT director for 5 years. I build my own computers. Recently, our internet service provider upgraded our cable modem/router to eero Pro 6E which uses wifi 6 and can communicate at 6 ghz. My existing wireless adapter is a tp-link AC1300 which can handle 5MHZ but not wifi 6 and 6 ghz. So, I ordered this EDUP AX3000 hoping it would connect to the router using wifi 6 at 6ghz. I installed it and updated the driver. First time, it connected at 2.4ghz. I started changing its configuration in the control manager and was able to connect at 5mhz. Then, all of a sudden it dropped back to 2.4 ghz. After multiple changes of connection protocol using 802.11ac, then 802.11n, etc. , I managed to get it stabilize it to not drop to 2.4ghz. However, no matter what I did, the adapter would not connect to eero at 6 ghz. It should be noted that my iphone 15 connects to the router using the 6ghz band at top speed of the eero. Update January 19, 2025. I changed my rating for this wireless adapter from 1 star to 4 star because of the good vendor's customer service. After I returned the first unit and requested refund, the vendor refunded my money but also contacted me offering a free unit to test. She asked me the configuration of my computer and I gave it to her. The free unit arrived on Friday and I installed it today. The driver file for the adapter comes on a USB stick which was included with it. This time, the installation went very smoothly because there was only one exe file on the stick. I installed the driver, rebooted the computer and the adapter connected to my eero router. At first, it connected via 2.4 ghz, but soon switched to 5 ghz band. The adapter still does not connect via the 6ghz band. However, the speed is much improved and connection is now consistent. The adapter does not drop to 2.4 ghz band upon system restart. It should be note that the speed of the communication between the adapter and your router depends greatly on how far your system is from the router and also how much metal structures are in between. I managed to reach a down load speed of 200 meg (our router max speed is 300 meg but the pc is not in line of sight). To close, this vendor has excellent customer service.

This is a great upgrade if you're looking for 6GHz WiFi. In fact, loved it so much that I bought 2 more and they work equally as well. Plus, you can't beat the price for what you are getting. High recommended.

The device driver for the MediaTek chipset this adapter is based on had one update 3 months after its initial release in 2022. That 3-1/2 year old update is all I could find. Ongoing work to make major fixes and improvements to the driver for this adapter's PCIe sibling have continued over the years, with a major release dropping as recently as October 2025. But this USB version based on the very same chipset has clearly been abandoned by EDUP many years ago, with known flaws and issues remaining unaddressed for this USB implementation. I would recommend just about any stable high performance USB Wi-Fi 5 adapter over this USB Wi-Fi 6 adapter.

Great price on an antenna that works great! Driver setup wasn't flawless, but for the price, it was still worth it and still a 5-stars product. Using this I got amazing signal for my office WiFi signals and was running almost 3 times what a co-worker was getting with a USB alternative. To be fair, I paired this with a USB 3.0 extender cable and set this in a slightly elevated position. But even with the cable, the cost was still was half of a name brand alternative and it works perfectly for me. Also, gotta give these folks kudos on the packaging. In a day and age of plastic packaging with no indication of recyclability, this packaging was a paper box with a plastic tray inside that has a plastic recycle number on it. Circled in red top right in my image. Thank you, keep up the great work!!

Funcionou perfeitamente.

Tengo dos de estos en maquinas de Linux. Sirve directo, sin necesidad de "drivers". Son suportados directo del Kernel. Muy buena señal y velocidad.
