    Hi I'm just getting setup with my Zgemma box and trying to get a WiFi dongle to work. It's a TP Link T2U nano and I'm wondering what if any drivers will work?

    I think that has Mediatek RTL8811AU chipset, you might find drivers in plugins > Download >Drivers.

    I don't see that driver in the plugins list.
    Would there be a conflict if installed all the available drives lol, seriously though

    that would not be advisable, its a unique driver.

    have a read here and see if you can follow, you can get to terminal via webif. go slow

    I have exactly the same WiFi dongle but couldn't find any way to get it to work. Tried installing nearly all of the official plugins. Manual install wouldn't work either as any guide I found needed apt-get which wasn't installed either...

    There is a Linux driver available which works on a Raspberry Pi, just couldn't get it working on Openvix. Let me know if you have any luck
