It's not exactly plug-and-play like in Windows, but it's still do-able for novices.Once you plug the adapter in, open up Software & Updates > Additional Drivers tab. In there you should see D-Link Corp.: Unknown and an option to either "Do not use the device" or "Using dkms source for the r8812au network driver from rtl8812au-dkms (open source)". Choose that open source option and click Apply Changes. It might take a few minutes, but it should go through.Note you may be prompted to enter a password for secure boot (this is called the MOK key) - go ahead and enter an easy-to-remember password (MOK key). After that, you'll need to reboot (it will most likely automatically prompt you to reboot, if not then just reboot manually). Pay attention during the reboot since you'll need to press the Enter key to enter the MOK key process (you'll see a window asking if you want to do this). I forget the exact terminology, but you want to navigate into a section where you type in that easy-to-remember password (MOK key) you just made. Once you put that password in, do whatever you need to do to gracefully get out of the MOK key area and complete the reboot process, eventually landing at the normal user log-in screen you see every time you reboot your computer. Once you log in, the adapter should work just fine. Don't miss that MOK key process since you'll need to remove and redo the driver installation process again to get back to it. IMO driver processes like this (and this is an easy one!) are one of the biggest hurdles for normal users moving into Linux-land....Another thing to note is the drivers don't automatically load every time you start/restart your computer. To have them automatically load up every time you restart (which is likely something you'll want), is add the module name to the /etc/modules file. To find your module name, first get everything fully installed and working fine, then in a terminal window type lsmod. This will show you all of your kernel modules. Look for the name of this puppy - in my case it's 8812au (derived from the rtl8812au-dkms I previously mentioned) - and copy that text. For your next terminal command, type in sudo gedit /etc/modules - this will open a text editor and at the bottom of that file just paste in the text you copied. Save and exit gedit, restart your computer, and viola. Note that apparently my current Ubuntu build has a but where the wireless icon at the top right (near the speaker & power button) entirely disappears **sometimes** but the wireless still connects and works just fine. You can confirm everything is still working OK by going into your Settings > Wi-fi and you'll see you're still connected just fine.I am using this with my NETGEAR R8000-100NAS Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Gigabit Wireless Router Model R8000-100NAS and 1 gbps down / 20 mbps up internet connection. Wireless speeds about 15 feet away through one interior wall are 176 mbps down (22 MB/s down) and 23 mbps up (maxing out my upload internet speed) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Working great for NAS wireless access *by on Reviewed in the United States March 21, 2026* Working great - it's to allow my QNAP NAS work wireless and worked just as they recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrific product *by on Reviewed in the United States January 6, 2015* I never really write reviews, but I thought I would for this product. I've had a considerable amount of trouble with USB wireless adapters in the past and was dreading purchasing a new one because these things never work out. Also, due to the location of my desktop and size of my home, these things never seem to get proper signal. But all that changed when I reluctantly got this USB Wi-Fi adapter.I use it every day for a few hours to play all sorts of games and browse the web. It gets way better signal than any other stick I've used and I have had zero trouble. To all the other negative reviews, they must not have installed the drivers properly or just have a poor computer in genreal. Just built a brand new desktop and paired it with this since my Motherboard didnt have space for an internal wifi adapter and I could not be happier ## Frequently Bought Together - D-Link WiFi USB Adapter AC1200 Mini Wireless Internet Dual Band 3.0 Wi-Fi Netowrk Desktop Laptop (DWA-182),Black - D-Link USB WiFi Adapter Dual Band AC1300 Wireless Internet for Desktop PC Laptop Gaming MU-MIMO Windows Mac Linux Supported (DWA-181-US) - BrosTrend Linux USB WiFi Adapter 1200Mbps for Ubuntu Mint Debian Kubuntu Mate Zorin PureOS Raspberry Pi 2+ Windows etc. Linux Compatible Wi-Fi Adapter Wireless Dual Band 5GHz 867Mbps + 2.4GHz 300Mbps --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/1266084-d-link-wifi-usb-adapter-ac1200-mini-wireless-internet-dual](https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/1266084-d-link-wifi-usb-adapter-ac1200-mini-wireless-internet-dual) --- *Product available on Desertcart Oman* *Store origin: OM* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
