AC600 Dual Band USB Wi-Fi Adapter

The Panda Wireless PAU0B is a USB Wi-Fi adapter that adds 802.11ac dual-band connectivity to any computer with a free USB port. It delivers a maximum data rate of 433 Mbps across 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks. A high-gain antenna improves reception of weaker signals. The adapter is backward compatible with 802.11b/g networks.

Ideal for Legacy OS and Linux Users

This adapter suits owners of older Windows versions from XP through 11, plus Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, Fedora, Kali and Raspbian. It requires only a 1 GHz CPU and 1 GB of memory. It will not work with game consoles, smart TVs, streaming boxes or any device that lacks a supported operating system.

Max 433 Mbps 802.11ac Data Rate

The single specification that decides fit is the maximum physical-layer rate of 433 Mbps on 802.11ac or 802.11n networks. Buyers whose router or internet plan demands higher throughput should look at a faster class of adapter.
