USB WiFi (802.11b/g/n) Module with Antenna for Raspberry Pi info
Make your Internet of Things device cable-free by using USB WiFi (802.11b/g/n) Module with Antenna for Raspberry Pi. Take advantage of the Raspberry Pi and Beagle Bone's USB port to add a low cost, but high-reliability wireless link. You'll have wireless Internet in 10 minutes! USB WiFi (802.11b/g/n) Module with Antenna for Raspberry Pi works great with 802.11b/g/n networks.
When you don't need the small size of Stick-size WiFi adapter, USB WiFi (802.11b/g/n) Module with Antenna for Raspberry Pi has a massive antenna for greater range! Please note the module has changed to an adapter that does not have a removable antenna
If using with a Beagle Bone: Because of the high power required by WiFi, a 5V 2A power adapter is required to power both the Bone and WiFi. Flaky behavior and crashes may result if this is not followed.
If using with a Raspberry Pi: The latest Wheezy distributions support this module out-of-the-box. Also, the Adafruit Occidentalis distribution has support built in.
