Features

  • WIFI 4 USB NANO DONGLE FOR LIBRE COMPUTER SBCs: Small plug and play 2.4GHz WiFi for single board computers with up to 150Mbps speed. Measuring 19mm x 14mm x 5mm, keep neighboring USB ports unobstructed. Low power design stays within the 500mA power budget of USB 2.0 ports.
  • PLUG AND PLAY FOR LINUX: Supports all current Linux LTS versions and Windows. No installation required for most Linux kernels, just insert into any USB 2.0 or higher port and connect to any 2.4GHz wireless network. Compatible with personal computers with USB 2.0 and 3.0 Type A ports. Built on the Linux mac80211 and cfg80211 frameworks, supports in-kernel wireless management.
  • LATEST WPA3 SECURITY STANDARDS COMPLIANT: Supports the latest WPA3 SAE security standards. Simultaneous Authentication of Equals provides additional protection from password brute forcing and dictionary attacks. WPA2 / WPA are no longer secure and passwords can be defeated in minutes. 802.1X network access control, and SoftMAC for future extensibility.
  • ADVANCED FUNCTIONALITY: AP mode, monitoring/sniffing mode, and 40MHz channels for up to 150Mbps (18.75MB/s) rates via integrated 1T1R 2dB antenna with 18dB transmit power. Configurable MAC to programmable protocol handling.
  • PREREQUISITES: 150Mbps (18.75MB/s) PHY rates require AP advertising 40MHz channels. 20MHz channels are limited to 72.2Mbps (9.025MB/s). Actual transmit efficiency is a function of dongle temperature and signal to noise ratio. Peak performance around 75% of PHY rate in low noise environment at 10M. Linux support requires CONFIG_MT7601U. WiFi 4 operates on the 2.4GHz band (2.400GHz-2.4835GHz) using the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standards.
  • CHECK FOR POWER SUPPLY ISSUES: Make sure that the device is getting 5V or higher during load. If power to your SBC is insufficient, this device may become underpowered and drop off the USB bus or periodically disconnect and/or exhibit low throughput. If you are unsure, please test this device with the GenBasic 5V 3A power supply.
