    Vu zero what is the best wifi dongle to use

    Hi guys I have a vu zero and now want to move it from its location to another location around 20 meters away from my router so I cant hardwire it. I cant use home plugs as I have 2 electric boxes one for the house and another for where I want to install box. just wondering if anyone can recommend a wifi dongle that I can use. thanks for any advice.

    You can get this one from WoS:

    You need to install the Realtek RTL8192CU driver from the plugins for it to work so you have to have an ethernet connection up to do that which complicates things slightly.
