I've recently started using Linux and opted for Zorin OS because it's known for being user-friendly. However, I'm struggling to get my network adapter—specifically the Ugreen AX900—to work. I've tried setting it up, but no luck. I'm running Zorin OS 18 with kernel version 6.14. Any help would be appreciated!

You might want to check out this thread on Ask Ubuntu: [Installing Ugreen AX900](https://askubuntu.com/questions/1532785/how-to-install-wifi-usb-ugreen-ax900). Usually, a quick Google search leads to useful insights. But be careful as you may find links circle back to community suggestions that don't always help!
If you're still having trouble, consider switching to a different distro like BigLinux that comes with proprietary drivers meant to handle these types of adapters.
It turns out that the Ugreen AX900 USB WiFi adapter doesn’t support Linux, as mentioned on its Amazon page. Many users have reported similar issues, and unfortunately, there haven't been any solutions found for Linux compatibility. You might want to check out this GitHub page that lists WiFi adapters known to work well with Linux: [USB-WiFi](https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi).
I’m not familiar with Zorin OS, but from my experience with Manjaro, sometimes just changing the kernel version can solve these kinds of issues. You could try switching to a different kernel to see if that helps.
