If I buy my USB wifi, does it compatible with Linux Lite?

There are no guaranties, but since Debian-Ubuntu are specifically mentioned, you should be good to go.

Seconding the above quote, I found this https://www.amazon.com/ask/questions/Tx1...pmw_al_hza

So, I guess this should apply to any other Ubuntu based distros such as Linux Lite. https://www.brostrend.com/pages/download-center
Without each others help there ain't no hope for us Smile
