Important note: This adapter is very old (circa 2006-2008). Sony no longer hosts drivers for it. The chipset is a Zydas ZD1211B . You can use the generic ZD1211B driver on Windows (XP/Vista/7) or Linux. For Windows 10/11, the driver is not officially compatible, but the ZD1211B driver from Airlive or Planex (e.g., GW-US54ZGL) sometimes works in compatibility mode.
