*Note
-When installing the driver on Raspberry Pi 2+, the installation may take over 10 minutes and please keep waiting and do not shut down the power.
-While our installer will also work in some other Linux distributions, such as ArchLinux and Fedora, we can only support Debian-based distributions currently.
Installation
The following instructions install the appropriate drivers for the AC1L, AC3L, AC5L, AX1L and AX4L BrosTrend Wi-Fi adapters in any of the supported distributions. All the drivers and the installer are open source (GPL); you may get the code from here.
💡 Tip: Linux kernels (>= 6.2) include their own drivers for our AC1L/AC3L/AC5L adapters, so they work out of the box in recent distributions. But these drivers aren’t yet as mature as ours, so if you encounter any issues, use our installer to replace them.
Installation steps
Please note that an Internet connection is required at the time of installation, so as to be able to download the driver and its dependencies (dkms, linux-headers…). That means that you might have to use a wired connection (LAN cable) or mobile phone wifi-to-usb tethering.
We recommend to update and reboot your system before running our installer, to avoid some common issues like mismatched kernel headers or old http certificates.
After the system has booted, insert the Wi-Fi adapter into a USB slot.
Select all the following line and right click → copy it to the clipboard:
sh -c 'wget linux.brostrend.com/install -O /tmp/install && sh /tmp/install'
Press Alt+F2 to invoke your distribution’s “Execute command” dialog, or open a terminal. Right click → paste the previous command in order to execute it. If it fails with “wget: command not found”, please try one of the alternative installation commands.
The installer requires root rights, so it will ask for your password. It will then automatically download, install and load the correct driver for your adapter. In some cases a reboot might be necessary.
If the installer reports an error, please copy all the text in the terminal and paste it in a mail to support@brostrend.com so that we can see what went wrong. Please also attach the auto-generated log file, /tmp/troubleshooting.txt.
If your distribution is based on Debian, our apt repository will be automatically added to your software sources, to provide automatic driver updates. For non-Debian distributions please re-run our installer whenever you need to update to our latest drivers.
In case you need any assistance in using the BrosTrend Wi-Fi adapters, please do not hesitate to contact us by sending an email at support@brostrend.com.

im peed off there is no support or documentation about a linux install so now im stuck and may have to refund please eamil me
im using Kali-Linux Kernal version 5.14.0 and god knows if it supports that BECAUSE THERE IS NO FRIGGING DOCUMENTATION FOR LINUX BROS TREND BE A BRO AND EMAIL ME with support please.
That’s all I have to say! I went with a cheaper hardware solution at first without reading the bad reviews that told me not many hardware solutions have Linux support. This one didn’t have the bad reviews, and for good reason. It’s fully supported! I didn’t even have to email back and forth with the support team. It was just
Get an internet connection
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
plug-it-in
visit brostrend.com
find my version’s driver
download the driver with a command
join the network.
I didn’t even need to reboot!
😀
I like the performance of this once install is completed. my throughput is now 5 times faster than the adapter I had before.
What was a disappointment for me was it is not plug n play, especially on a linux platform. Linux users: read the description carefully. you do need to have an auxiliary internet connection to install the drivers for this. That is mentioned in the description but only in one line and far down in the text.
I bought this to improve connectivity for an elder person to improve his connectivity and had to hook up online with an old school modem to install the drivers on her linux box.
Overall I am pleased, I only now wonder if I will have to have to reinstall drivers whenever she lets her machine do updates on her linux system
