mikrotik+AWUS036NH

can it be done?

of course not

RouterOS only supports ATHEROS wireless chipsets. So, no.

does it means that alpha usb wifi adaptor model AWUS036NHA with AR9271 chipset will work ?

i took a look in http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Supported_Hardware

it says ROS 5.0rc4 will work!

am i correct?

It should work, but I recommend miniPCI instead. We have had some stability issues with this USB chip

that’s true

i have a usb nic card and didn’t stand long

i think a usb virus in the server cache is the reason
