Installing the TL-WN722N driver is crucial for several reasons: chipset
The AR9271 is a with a built-in 32-bit MIPS core (R4000-style). Unlike older “softMAC” chips (e.g., RTL8187), the AR9271 runs the full MAC and PHY management firmware on that MIPS core, not on the host CPU. This is a “hardMAC” design. The adapter is designed to provide high-speed wireless
