    The YouTube clip is for an older m3/f3. The f5s from release has the WiFi driver installed for compatible WiFi devices.

    So plug the adaptor in and see if its compatible, if it isn't then there's not much that can be done as the f5s has a closed firmware which can't me modiffied.

    Anything with a Ralink RT5370 Chipset should work.

    Mini 150M USB WiFi Wireless LAN 802.11 n/g/b Adapter with Antenna: http://amzn.to/1qALZXi

    Worth a try at that price

    Dont bother they don't work I tried on mobile networks and on home wifi but they always timed out get one of those home plugs or a router extender from eBay for ?10.99 far better and save u money it's not the adapter it's the box. Google it send u will see lots of problems with it.
