Will this dongle work with F4-423

Post by eskatephil »

Hi.

I need to add WIFI to my NAS - can anyone confirm whether these models of usb wifi adapters work with F4-423? I know that there are certain chips that are supported ( RTL8812bu and RTL8812au ) Which chip is newer? and which of those dongles would work?

Netgear A6210 AC1200 Dual Band (867+300Mbps) USB WiFi Adaptor

TP-LINK Archer T9UH AC1900 Dual Band USB Wifi Adaptor

Netgear A7000-100PES AC1900 Dual Band

ASUS USB-AC68 Dual Band 802.11 (1300+600Mbps) WiFi Adaptor (USB)

BrosTrend AC3 Dual Band 1200Mbps(867+300Mbps) USB WiFi Adaptor

BrosTrend AX1800 USB WiFi 6 Dongle

TP-Link Archer T3U Plus AC1300 MU-MIMO USB 3.0 WiFi Dual Band Adapter

Although not a definitive list, using these as a resource to check against:

RTL8812AU | RTL8812BU

Only the BrosTrend AC3 (apparently could be either of these 2 RealTek chips in question) & the TP-Link T3U Plus could work; the rest are incompatible (currently no AX support within currently available TOS 4.×/5.×/6.× releases).

Thank you! both of them work - any idea which one would be better? Or actually - is there a speedtest/bandhwith test otion for the TOS 5.1?

Visibly, the AC3 having two adjustable omnidirectional antennae (seemingly 2×2) should mean its connection & throughput should be better than the single antenna T3U Plus (though TP-Link claims it's a dual antennae in one, so also 2×2), however wireless connectivity can be impacted by many environmental issues such as RF interference, so real-world abilities are near impossible to predict.
