    The review states that you installed 2.2 FW. Latest I see is 2.1 dated 2018-04-12. Am I missing something?

    Build A Wi-Fi Performance Analyzer For $75

    The Alfa AWUS051NHv2 does not seem to be readily available. Do you have another low cost choice that works? Does it matter if it does not have wireless AC?
