Tell me the adapter models that work without problems on the 5.4 kernel and higher. Plugged it in and it works. Preferably the one you use.

Yes, in Linux, probably, there are no problems with wi-fi adapters now.
Personally, I have a D-Link DWA-126. All laptops worked...
But DWA-126 didn't work in FreeBSD.
I ordered an adapter based on RTL8188CUS on aliexpress for 140 rubles. It seems to work in both Linux and FreeBSD without problems.

Do you need 5 GHz, do you need an antenna connector?

Attention, time of black magic! Open Google , if you haven't been banned there yet and enter a request like: adapter model, which we are going to buy linux driver. After we look at the issue, most likely the necessary information will already be on 1 page.
This manipulation can be done with any adapter and it is likely that there is a driver, for example, an unofficial one. And probably there is the other way around official.
