It tells you that to let you know it will not work until you install the drivers.f23948 wrote: ⤴Tue Jan 31, 2023 4:58 pm Before I buy my ethernet to USB adapter for my Dell Inspiron 14 7420 2in1, please I would like to know why it says on the Amazon required driver for Linux?

A lot of hardware needs drivers to work properly and not all of them are open-source. Would you rather they not let you know ahead of time that special drivers are needed?
Many docking stations with networking require special drivers so the ports work properly so this is not something unusual.
