The fact that they made me buy something because it was compatible which then turned out to not work, is infuriating. I'll s.uck it up and get the device working through ethernet to my router, but at least if the USB WiFi dongle worked (but s.ucked in terms of speed) I would have at least been somewhat ok about it. At least no Synology customer will be wasting money buying a device that isn't going to work on their NAS. New Tp-link Deco E4 3pack/2pack/1pack Whole Home Mesh Wifi System. New Modem Andromax 4G MIFI M2Y, M3Y, M3Z Unlock. At least they have the foresight to warn customers that USB adapters are not guaranteed to work and therefore they have marked them as such. New TP-Link TL-WN823N 300Mbps USB Wifi Adapter Mini. The utility provides you an easy interface to connect to a network and to change any settings related to the wireless adapter. I went over to the Synology website to see their situation with 'compatible devices' for their NAS units and when I checked WiFi USB adapters - they were all EOL. Method One: To connect using TWCU TL-WN823N uses the TP-LINK Wireless Configuration Utility as the management software. Obviously a v1 of the adapter may be missing crucial hardware/software that doesn't make it compatible but higher versions should be expected to work. If they say they have tested it with USB WiFi adapter 123XYZ v2 and I have this adapter but perhaps a higher version 3 or 4, then it stands to reason that even if if it isn't the exact version number, but is higher - that it should work because we presume that when the adapter is at version 3, it has everything in it from v2 that makes it work.

It doesn't make sense if I'm looking at getting their NAS and then I look on the support compatibility page to see all these devices that are compatible, get one and then find it doesn't work. I just wish that if there really is no support and everybody has to jump through hoops to get these USB WiFi dongles to work, then Qnap should just say they no longer support them.
