USB WIFI

Wed Feb 07, 2018 7:24 pm

Hi Folks,

Is someone have try to connect an USB Wifi device on a RB3011 (USB3) ?
device like this https://www.eurodk.com/en/products/alfa ... a-awus1900
That will be cool to a make a simple Access Point direct attach to the router.

Probably there is no answer for that except than usb wifi adapters are not officially supported. May happen that some atheros chips might work but no one does that. Rather buy appropriate device if you need WiFi.

Buy a Teltonika modem. That is a real UMTS / LTE modem, with a LAN output. it runs on Luci.

It even has OSPF, MPLS etc...

As far as I know, some usb wifi adapters worked only in now very old RouterOS (5.?), and not even very well. So now there's no support for any. I liked the idea myself, but it probably doesn't make sense for MikroTik (too many different devices to support, not so many people who would want to use it).
