> :information_source: **Important:** Be aware that external WiFi adapters (ie, USB "dongles") vary greatly in terms of hardware capabilities and driver support. Many do not have support for AP mode, require a powered USB hub, manual driver and/or firmware installation or are otherwise not well suited for this application.
Recommended adapters such as the Edimax 7811Un and Ralink RT5370 work out of the box with Raspberry OS (32-bit) Buster Lite. Adapters that require compiling of third-party drivers or other workarounds, including many Realtek based devices, are notoriously problematic. For this reason, you must verify your adapter _before_ reporting an issue with this feature.

## <a name="monitor"></a>Can I use RaspAP as a monitor only, without changing my configuration?
Yes, RaspAP has support for a so-called "monitor mode". In `config.php` change the setting `RASPI_MONITOR_ENABLED` to `true`. This disables the ability to modify settings, start/stop daemons, shutdown or reboot the RPi. RaspAP will continue to report interface statistics, service settings and data usage as normal.
