Connecting USB wifi adapter to OpenWRT router

nitinjs · January 29, 2025, 4:26pm

I have TP-Link Archer C5
I have connected Alfa AWUS036ACM wifi adapter through USB port of the router.
However it does not shows in the radios list (admin/network/wireless)

I wonder how to use the new adapter with OpenWRT?

You've obviously searched the forum for AWUS036ACM, right ?

Installed the following package

and the dongle got detected.
