[HELP] Raspberry Pi 4 Compatible WiFi

[ryu091]

Hi I'm New Here,

I have Raspberry Pi 4 I'm from dubai i bought a usb adapter (https://amzn.to/3b3x1Ey) for my computer and i tried to use it to my Rasp Pi 4 it is not working i tried installing driver watch youtube but i think this is different not compatible in my Pi 4.

Please advise me what is the best compatible on my Pi 4. My main connection is using LAN Ethernet and i need to use the external wifi to connect to my 2nd ISP WiFi because my built-in WiFi is currently sharing/broadcasting to connect all devices that has a WiFi.

Ethernet Port - Main Internet 1st ISP
wlan0 - Sharing WiFi connection.
wlan1 - connect to 2nd ISP

Then i'm using Speedify to combined Ethernet + wlan1(ExternalWiFi) connection then share it using my wlan0(built-in adapter).

Please help me to get the best compatible WiFi Adapter for my Pi 4.

Regards,
Jan

Given that a P4B already has built-in 5GHz/2GHz WiFi why do want to use a USB WiFi dongle? Whilst I can think of a couple of situations:
1) Given that the purchased adapter has an external aerial you need better WiFi power/sensitivity
2) You want to connect to the P4B directly from another computer using said dongle
Please clarify? (eg. what is "Speedify")
(The "default" setup for a Pi with built-in WiFi is for it to be connecting to a WiFi router. It can be re-configured, eg. as an "Access Point" or "Bridge" and there are other threads, mainly in this section: viewforum.php?f=36 that deal with those applications.)

Thanks for that info. - which tends to confirm my suspicions that the O.P. may get better responses in the "Networking & Servers" forum section (which I linked to).

Hi Speedify is like a VPN Software and it can Channel Bonding as per @neilgl answer is correct i already configure my Buil-in wifi as an access point using the Speedify settings and successfully connected my Android.

My Current Settings:
Ethernet port - connected to my Main ISP
wlan0 Built-in Wifi - configure using Speedify to make an access point or hotspot to share the and connect my Android/Iphone/Laptop using wifi.

so now i search in youtube but it is not a the same Rasp4 im using Youtube use a Rasp3 to configure a two WiFi adapter. I want to configure also for my Rasp4 with a Two WiFi one is built-in and the other is External WiFi Adapter like this Link from Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNtfHdwcnqU) he combine all 4 different ISP/Connections, well i can do combining Ethernet + Android using Tethering and Built-in Wifi is sharing as a accesspoint.

But what i want is to add more WiFi external adapter to connect to other ISP but i dont know which adapter that it is compatible on my Rasp4.

Use the chipset name of a wifi adapter when looking for linux compatibility.
In your case it looks like the driver needs to be compiled to make the adapter work:

The most important issue is identifying the Chipset, as manufacturers often change due to supply:
