I purchased from the link provided. Waited for a month for the product to arrive but it turned out to be using rtl8812bu not mt7612u chipset. We should take the link down to prevent people buying the wrong product again

The link is gone.

My humble apologies but it seems you understand that at much as I try, some resellers will make changes without notice. I do my best to use links to really dependable sources so newegg is on the blacklist now.

At least there is a reasonable good in-kernel driver for that chipset these days in case you keep the adapter. USB support for that chipset went into kernel 6.2.
