I recently bought a Bluetooth USB adapter that supposedly had kernel level support but it didn’t work at all (without patching the kernel .-.)

Anybody have a good recommendation? Ideally I’d like for it support BT 5.0+ and be supported by the kernel.

    Avantree DG45 works great despite not being officially supported by the manufacturer. I’m not sure if it’s supported at the kernel level, so you’ll need to check the chip. Here’s the info:

    ID: USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8771&REV_0200
    Chip: Realtek 8671B

    I used the 10 buck one that first came up on Amazon and it has served me well for years now Just search USB Bluetooth Adapter Linux and pick the cheapest option
