Best KODI XBMC Wireless Raspberry Pi Dongle
Best KODI XBMC Wireless Raspberry Pi Dongle
Ā Getting a Raspberry Pi talking to a wireless network is a straight forward process with a few minor hurdles. I use mine mainly with an imaged Kali Linux Penetration Testing Platform, turning my Raspberry Pi into a portable penetration testing center. You may wish to stream movies and watch your favorite TV shows using XBMC / Kodi as your wireless Raspberry Pi media center.
There is a few things to watch for though, one being that the 5 volts DC a wireless USB adapter needs to run is not well supplied on Raspberry Pi. While it does supply some voltage the amps are so low that a USB adapter will need to have a low power draw.
One way to fix this, and the easiest, is to use a USB hub that supplies its own power such as this 5600mAh USB Portable External Power Bank.

Raspberry Pi Chipset a USB adapter / dongle uses.
The chipset built into a WiFi adapter is what makes it Raspberry Pi compatible.
Wireless Chipsets known to work with a Raspberry Pi.
Atheros AR9271 Ralink RT3070 Realtek 8187L Ralink RT5370
Ā 1. Ralink RT5370 150Mbps USB Wireless WiFi Adapter
Able to stream HD content without any performance issues. Key features of this adapter include:
Works with 2.4 GHz Wireless b/g/n
Max speeds up to 150 Mbps
Multi-OS support including Linux
Security: WPA2/WPA-PSK (AES, TKIP) WEP 64, 128-bit
Ā Ā 2. Raspberry Pi Ralink RT5370 150Mbps Wireless WiFi Adapter w/ External 2dBi Antenna
This is one the best wireless dongles made for the Raspberry Pi with an external 2dBi antenna to boost signal reception. You can switch out the antenna for a higher gain unit such as this 7dBi which I use. Other key features include:
Works with 2.4 GHz Wireless b/g/n
Max speeds up to 300 Mbps
Multi-OS support including Linux
Security: WPA2/WPA-PSK (AES, TKIP) WEP 64, 128-bit
Ā Ā 3. ALFA AWUSO36NEH Wireless Adapter | Atheros AR9271 Chipset
This is the official Raspberry Pi USB Wireless adapter that combines full penetration testing standards along with most powerful & reliable for all wireless network requirements. Therefore it is guaranteed to work and it is no surprise that it is one of the highest rated adapter for Raspberry Pi.
