Native support on Windows 10 & 11
If you are running Microsoft Windows 10 or 11, your Bearifi Outdoor AC may be natively supported and you may not need to install drivers. To check, plug in your Bearifi Outdoor AC to your PC's USB port and see if you have a WiFi 2 option as in this graphic:
Windows 11
Windows 10
The above assumes your PC has a built-in WiFi card. If it does not, then you should just see available WiFi networks instead of the WiFi/WiFi 2 choice. In some cases if you have used another USB WiFi product on the PC, the number may appear as WiFi 3 or WiFi 4.
If you see WiFi 2, this represents your Bearifi Outdoor AC and you can pick out a network below to connect. If you unplug Bearifi Outdoor AC from your PC, the WiFi 2 will go away, but will reappear the next time you plug it in.
If you do not see WiFi 2, or you have an older version of Windows, please proceed to this quickstart guide. If you do not have software autoloading like in the guide, click the file below and run the setup application inside.
This is for Microsoft Windows, Vista, 7, 8, 10, and 11. After downloading this file, open it and run the Setup Application inside.
