Hi Peter,
That is correct, the drivers only appear to be suitable for a Pi 4, I attempted to hook this up to a Pi Zero earlier today and it wasn’t properly recognized. That being said, this version which is currently available on backorder should do the trick, but unfortuantely I don’t have one here to confirm.
If you have any further questions (or if anyone can confirm this particular Network Card is not suitable for a Pi Zero) please let me know.

Hi Sam,
Welcome to the forum!!
Just to confirm, did you have a Pi 1? (With 26 GPIO) A picture here would help a ton!
If you download a legacy version of Pi OS (Buster) you’ll be able to use the adapter at the top of this topic no worries!
