Hello folks,
DW works in a small clinic where they have an old wired network. Due to budgetary issues, they can not upgrade the network at the moment. But they are trying out a system offered by one insurance company where they need to use a tablet for recording patient data.
I was wondering if USB wi-fi adapter can be a temporary solution for their needs. I am not too sure how the whole thing works. They don't want to mess with the current system. Does it need installation of any driver/software or it can be used with Windows XP as a plug-n-play hardware? I searched Newegg and came up with these hardwares Is this the right one?
Can anyone flash some light on this? Any recommendation on hardware will be very much appreciated. Just to note, an encryption is needed (because of patient data) and this dongle will be removed at the end of every day (if sleeping the computer doesn't disconnect the internet).
Many thanks in advance
