Hi Nux.

I've used the following successfully on CentOS 7:
TP-LINK - TL-WN722N

I'm currently using it on Ubuntu where lsusb gives this:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0cf3:9271 Atheros Communications, Inc. AR9271 802.11n

No issues whatsoever - an added bonus is that it does monitor mode if you plan
on troubleshooting wifi!


Cheers,
ak.
