As explained, I know I can get an external adapter that does the job.
The question is whether someone can recommend a system where the
*internal* adapter works well.
The advantages (lower parts count, lower power consumption, more USB
ports available for other uses, ...) might not matter to you, but they
matter to me.
The lack of other answers makes me suspect that all the builtin wifi
adapters on ARM systems just suck, IOW what I'm looking for
doesn't exist.
