Hello I have rock64 running Android OS. I bought the following usb wifi dongle from pine64 store.

How do I get working on android please? I connected but it doesn't do anything. Do I need to configure wifi settings? If so can someone please tell me what settings to configure and how to do it? Thank you.

Works out-of-the-box for me. Did you plug it into the OTG USB port ? if so, try a different port (I've had one instance, when I booted with the adaptor in the OTG port, then unplugged it and plugged it into a different USB and it started working).
You have to activate it in Android obviously in network settings.

Thanks for reply. How do I activate in network settings? When I go there I don't know what to do as there is only usual options for wifi Ethernet etc. No options to change adapter or anything from what I can tell. I tried all USB ports but it didn't work with any of them but when I plugged the adapter into my pc it started working straight away. I might be missing something obvious?

All I have to do is flick this on in Network Settings (to the right of settings at the bottom in main menu) to have the networks list. Same adaptor.
ATV build - believe its the same for stock android.

That works for a universal wifi adapter? What version of Android TV do you use? Ayufan? 6.0?
