Dual Band USB Wi-Fi Adapter for PC and Raspberry Pi

The TAURKENAM PAU09 N600 is a USB wireless adapter that connects Intel or AMD desktops and Raspberry Pi 0 through 4 to 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks. It supports 802.11 a/ac/b/g/n standards and delivers a maximum wireless connection speed of 300 Mbps. The adapter works with 32-bit and 64-bit Windows from XP to 11 and a wide range of Linux distributions including Mint, Ubuntu, Fedora, Kali and Raspbian. There is no Mac support for this device.

Practical limits of the Wireless N interface

The adapter tops out at 300 Mbps on either band, so it will not reach the higher throughput of 802.11ac or ax devices. It handles both infrastructure and ad-hoc modes and secures traffic with WEP 64/128-bit, WPA, WPA2, 802.1x and 802.11i plus Cisco CCS V1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 compliance. Buyers who need faster Wi-Fi speeds or the latest security protocols should consider other options.

Dual 5 dBi antennas and USB form factor

Two external 5 dBi antennas are built onto the adapter to improve signal reception and range in typical indoor settings. The USB stick design plugs directly into a host port without cables, making it simple to move between a desktop PC and a Raspberry Pi board. It will not work with media players, DVRs, NAS boxes, game consoles or security cameras, and virtual-machine use with guest operating systems such as Kali requires guidance from the manufacturer.

Questions about this item

Which TAURKENAM PAU09 version should I choose for a Raspberry Pi 4 versus a Windows 11 desktop?

The single hardware version runs on Raspberry Pi 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and on 32-bit or 64-bit Windows XP through 11, plus the listed Linux distributions. No Mac support.

What does the 300 Mbps figure mean when the adapter is connected to my router?

It is the maximum wireless link rate the adapter can negotiate on either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz 802.11n networks. Real throughput will be lower due to overhead and signal conditions.

What USB standard does the PAU09 use and what speed does that limit me to?

The adapter connects via USB. The 300 Mbps wireless ceiling is well within USB 2.0 bandwidth, so the USB link will not throttle the wireless performance.
