The X1850 is compatible only with Windows devices. Plug it in, and a window pops open that prompts you to install the drivers. After that, it operates seamlessly and attaches to whatever network you want. There's no WPS attachment button on the adapter itself, however.

Wi-Fi 6 performance isn't always better than Wi-Fi 5 performance. Both standards have a very wide range of modes from slow to fast. The X1850 is an AX1800 adapter and is capable of reaching speeds of up to 574Mbps on 2.4GHz and 1.2Gbps on 5GHz networks, at least in theory. However, the latest Wi-Fi 5 adapters (the TP-Link and Netgear models I mentioned earlier) are both AC1900 models, with slightly better speed capabilities on both bands.
