Hello, I am planning to buy UB500 Bluetooth USB adapter for my PC. Will It work correctly on 5.19 kernel?
Looks like Tp-Link doesn’t support Linux but, as I see, Linux kernel already implemented driver. But some users have problems.
Should I buy it? Maybe there are other inexpensive but high-quality adapters with Linux support?
Hi @BlackBaroness,
Well, I know we don’t really do hardware recommendations here, but this isn’t the same. Right? Right?!
Anyway, this adapter is still relatively new, I think. But eventually my search for information led me here:

Where I found the device id, here in this post is: 2357:060.
So, I used that to check ere:
Which states:
The device is supported by kernel versions 5.16 and newer according to the LKDDb:
So, it shoould be fine to get it, as long as you use a kernel newer than 5.16.
Or, probably install a dkms kernel module that I don’t know where to get.
