Miniature WiFi (802.11b/g/n) USB Module

Please note: This item may be supplied with OEM packaging

• DESCRIPTION

  Make your Internet of Things device cable-free by adding WiFi. Take advantage of the Raspberry Pi and Beagle Bone's USB port to add a low cost, but high-reliability wireless link. We tried half a dozen modules to find one that works well with the Pi and Bone without the need of recompiling any kernels: its supported by the Bone's Angstrom installation that comes with each Bone. You'll have wireless Internet in 10 minutes! Works great with 802.11b/g/n networks.
  
  If using with a Beagle Bone: Because of the high power required by WiFi, a 5V 2A power adapter is required to power both the Bone and WiFi. Flaky behavior and crashes may result if this is not followed! We have a tutorial for using this module with the Beagle Bone!
  
  If using with a Raspberry Pi: The latest Wheezy distributions support this module out-of-the-box. You may find that you need to have a powered hub to use this adapter, so if you're having power flakiness with your Pi, try a hub!
  
  Can be used in Desktops and Notebooks: Need a quick connection to your router? this miniature Wifi dongle will do the job!
  Please note: The WiFi module may look slightly different than above, but all modules shipped are tested and contain the same chipset and have equivalent performance, the only difference is the plastic shell
