    My usual process for this is to setup the dongle with it plugged into a laptop or PC 1st.

    Add network details and PW, then confirm it connects.

    Once that's done, I plug it into the router, restart GUI and proceed with adding the connection via menu > setup > network > device to see if the dongle is visible and then set as active.


    **Forgot to say, check that the dongle chipset is "Known good" with E2. Not all dongles work with AFAICR.
