Western Digital OS5 Compatible Wifi Dongle
Hi
I'd like to set up wifi using a dongle on my WD PR2100 NAS.
Are there any wifi dongles compatible with Western Digital's OS5 (I believe Linux Debian)?
Many thanks for any pointers!

Hello @NikiM ,
Welcome to our community.
It is not recommended to use TP-Link wireless adapters on NAS or other non-computer systems to establish a Wi-Fi connection. The official drivers are designed specifically for computer operating systems, and drivers compatible with other network devices like NAS systems are not currently available.
While OS5 is Linux-based, the issue isn't just about Linux compatibility • it's that TP-Link wireless adapters are designed to work with standard computer operating systems rather than specialized network device operating systems like those found on NAS units.
Best Regards.
