surface-aggregator-module VS USB-WiFi

A derivative of checkn1x built on Debian Linux instead of Alpine Linux with linux-surface's surface-aggregator-module preinstalled to add keyboard support for various Microsoft Surface devices.

Ahh, that will be hard, however the linux community is great and has pretty much reverse engineered this https://github.com/linux-surface/surface-aggregator-module.

Other platforms, such as Microsoft's Surface devices have the Surface Aggregator Module whose role(s) haveexpanded to scopes such as handling input events, and over time, become much harder to handle on alternate operating systems such as Linux. Apple's T2's security processor, for example, imposes even more restrictions (and at a wider scope) than Microsoft's SSAM implementation.

I've already had a look at this but unsure how often it's updated, 6 months ago according to github: https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi/blob/main/home/The_Short_List.md

Just google "raspberry pi wifi adapter" or see https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi

Just a note that if you're _serious_ about WiFi on the Raspberry Pi... you should use an external WiFi adapter—either PCIe or USB.

With the Compute Module 4, I've successfully tested a variety of adapters [1], from WiFi 6E to older mini PCIe and M.2 cards. There's even a board made for the purpose of multi-WiFi testing, the Seaberry [2].

The Raspberry Pi 5 works with all the PCIe WiFi chips I've tested (haven't had time to summarize testing on pipci database site yet, including a mt7921u-based WiFi 6E USB adapter (haven't written that up, but check out [3]).

Hey all, I've read the Github list of Linux WiFi adapters (https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi/blob/main/home/The_Short_List.md) but I've seen sporadic comments of certain users saying some haven't worked for them. I'm a bit risk averse buying something most likely from the USA and waiting a while for it to get to Australia and it not work, so I was hoping some people could comment with their specific models that have worked for them.

It would. These should work, as clients and in AP mode. https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi
