MrEngman is a Pi god when it comes to drivers for WiFi adaptors.

Itā€™s made for USB, so it should be able to be powered by USB, but make sure you power your Pi with a decent supply. Iā€™d get a powered hub as Costas suggests.

This is the definitive guide on which WiFi adaptor to use with the Pi http://elinux.org/RPi_USB_Wi-Fi_Adapters

@Patrice_Bois I have a few dozen WiFi adaptors for my Piā€™s covering about 4 or 5 WiFi models.

You donā€™t really want to be compiling drivers if you can help it.

You should be able to find a fairly high powered WiFi adaptor that already has the drivers in the latest release of Raspbian. Might take a bit of research and a post of two on the Pi forum but worth it in the long run.

Hi guys, so i just installed a Asus N-13 wifi dongleā€¦ now on the pi i have two wlan available. wlan0 and wlan1, how can i make my new wlan the default oneā€¦?

You can edit the interfaces file in /etc/networks. Comment out the wlan0 and add the wlan1 info. That should probably do it.
