Compatible WiFi Dongle for Windows 2016 Server
Need a USB 3 WiFi dongle that will work with Windows 2016 Server Standard.
If it works with windows 10 it should work with server 2016.
I've tried a couple different ones (not netgear) with my windows server 2016 and not had issues.
I've just done it for testing as I prefer my servers hardwired in. Or with a bit wider of backhaul.
You could also get a (decent) wireless extender and hardwire it in. Then you have the added benefit of a wireless extender to add coverage/capabilities.
