usb wi-fi dongle with 5ghz

Thu Mar 28, 2013 9:09 pm

hello.
i know that possible connect wi-fi usb-dongle with atheros inside to routerboard and use it for creation wireless network. but. as i understood, this feature is working only with old chips.
but why mikrotik didn't make supporting of new chips with 5ghz wi-fi? i think, a lot of people will be happy to add very cheap adapter and use a new wi-fi range
thanks for attention :)

Is not working with any usb dongle. Not reliable anyway, in my case didn't worked at all.
