Hello,
I have a Cosmos II 17.3" laptop. I have a working Ethernet connector and working USB2 and USB3 ports, but for reasons I've posted about separately, I currently can't use the laptop's WiFi card.
I am considering a temporary solution of using either a WiFi-to-USB3 or WiFi-to-Ethernet adapter.
Could you recommend devices please? I would prefer to spend relatively little. How well is the WiFi signal picked up (i.e. how good is the range)? What sort of bandwidth can I expect when the signal is strong?
My system has Linux installed, so if you happen to know whether the device is compatible with Linux, that would be useful; otherwise I will try to find out myself.
[The reason for this query is related to availability of Linux drivers for the Realtek RTL8723BE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter, but I've posted about that separately.]
Thanks.
