Hi all.

I'm thinking of virtualizing my router. Now i have a 951G and HP server. I see some people run mikrotik router OS on esxi. I have several NIC in my server, the only thing I need is wireless.
Question is, does mikrotik supports any usb wi-fi sticks? I'd like to get something with .ac wireless.

Probably not. Even there is some supported hw list on wiki and generally atheros chips should work somehow, even this question was repeated here many times, I have not seen any positive experience with usb wifi dongles at all.
