    Some users have reported that USB-C flash drives do not work. This requires more study.| ### Wifi chipsets The following wifi chipsets/devices have their drivers included in the OS images. Most of these have not been tested. Note that power consumption metrics are for a specific version of a chipset and may not apply to all implementations. |Chipset: |Tested?|Recommended?|Power usage |Notes| |-----------------------|-------|------------|------------|-----| |**Realtek:** | | | | | |rtl8187 | | | | | |rtl8187b | | | | | |rtl8188[cr]u | | | | | |rtl8188cu | | | | | |rtl8188ee | | | | | |rtl8188eu
