wifi adaptors compatible with Enigma2 boxes from our sponsor:
Linux Enigma 2 & MAG IPTV STB Box Compatible 150MBPS USB WiFi B/G/N Adapter
any info of what chipset model inside them?
Not sure mate, theres no info regarding chipset model @ the links provided.
Though it does state that drivers are pre-installed in OpenViX, OpenATV and many other Linux Enigma 2 firmware / images.
Uhh, in all the OEA based images you'll be able to use one of these chipsets:

+ some subvariants as some drivers cover more models.
But, alas, there **could** be some problems:
- Vendor ID/Product ID might not be supported
- Without a dedicated antenna on the stick, in a more demanding layouts, send/receive might be poor
- Older sticks/chipsets might put unhappy strain to your power supply and shorten it's lifespan
- Overheating and resulting dropouts could happen, especially in 24/7 workload
In short, if you do need a reliable network link, it might be better to try an old router that can work in AP mode, 2nd hand AP/Bridge (the terms are sometimes very strange and do not map 1:1 between manufacturers), check whether PowerLine pair can meet $$/make sense ratio (and no disturbance from bad house/flat installations), or still the best, try to use good old plain wire.
In a low bandwidth, low/short usage, some luck, USB wifi stick could be ok:)
