Dual Nighthawk AXE3000 WiFi USB 3.0 Adapters

I recently got fiber for the house and bought a Nighthawk AXE3000 WiFi USB 3.0 Adapter to connect to my pc.  I was reading somewhere that said you could connect a wifi adapter to the back of your TV for better speed.  How do I install another Nighthawk adapter when it is connected to the TV?  Would it be beneficial?

"some" tv's can do this. And its usually very specific modules. Its not like a computer where it'll go online to get the appropriate drive or you load the appropriate one. It has to be built into the software on the tv. So it usually doesn't work. 

Its the very rare tv that will take an aftermarket adapter. 

Your better bet if you're needing faster/better connection to the tv is to hardwire in the tv if you have an ethernet connection. Or use a wifi extender (with an ethernet port).
