Only use t.p links which cause no isues
I am trying to use TP Link WN823N, but can't get zgemma to recognise it. I am plugging it into the front USB port. Any ideas where I could be going wrong. Dongle tested on laptop and works fine, so I'm sure it's a driver issue or something. Or do you mean this particular dongle has known issues?
No I use t.p nano links 500 which work
Through your electric ring circuit
Never had isue

I think your best bet would be power lines as opposed to dongle WiFi ! I have never used dongle WiFi but there are a lot of posts with problems!

That USB wifi dongle has 3 versions V1 V2 V3 so go to TP Link Website Support for your version and search for the PDF User Guide that includes the LINUX Driver name. Then on remote Press GREEN GREEN, select Drivers and download driver.
Or you could try this:
Insert the wifi dongle in front USB slot. On remote Press GREEN GREEN, select Drivers and download 88x2bu driver.
Then reboot and press BLUE Network to select the WLAN option and enter your wifi router password to connect.

I've only ever used one like this, 600Mbps Wireless USB WiFi Adapter Dongle LAN 802.11/b/g/n 2.4Ghz Laptop PC TVBox | eBay
Never had problems with that, as long as the wifi signal is good.
As others have said, Homeplugs would be a better option. Get the highest mbps throughput possible. I, personally, use 1000mbps ones, they work great. Obviously you will never get that sort of throughput, but the theory is that what is available will pass through unhindered.

I've already got one Zgemma connected to router with ethernet - only want the second one for IPTV - I've already got the box and bought the dongle. If I can't get this dongle to work, I will probably opt for a different device other than zgemma for the IPTV only.

If going for a new box, I can highly recommend a Formuler Z8. Smashing little box, with built in wifi & the MytvOnline2 app works a treat. I have one & well pleased with it, plus as it is Android based, you can have whatever apps you choose.

You can use LAN cables.
You can get 5m, 12.5m and 25m length LAN cables for a few quid
