RB-Ada-67

Mini USB WiFi Module

Description

Make your Internet of Things device cable-free by adding WiFi. Take advantage of the

Beagle Bone's USB port to add a low cost, but high-reliability wireless link. We tried half

a dozen modules to find one that works well with the Bone without the need of

recompiling any kernels, its supported by the Angstrom installation that comes with each

Bone. You'll have wireless Internet in 10 minutes! Works great with 802.11b/g/n

networks.

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.
