Topic: help n 1004 wi fi dongle

I'd like to try to make it work with newer chipsets.

Newer/other edimax will not work.. it comes down to the chipset because of the driver that is inside the firmware.

Hi,

My WiFi Dongle just broke down (. I tried with a TP-Link TL-WN722N, with no luck. Then I found this post.

Would it be difficult to make it work? Could I have a look to see if I can make it work?

Does anyone know if newer Edimax Models work? I don't think that the old model can be purchased today somewhere.

    As far as I know only the Original model will work.
    I tried one with the exact same chipset and it was ignored.

    So far no one was able to replace the driver or find a replacement model of the wifi dongle
