I have an external wifi adapter:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H95C0A2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It works in Arch linux and other distros perfectly.  I would like to use
this on my AllStar node as it has the ability of attaching an external
antenna.

I am a little lost on how to set this up on the arm-allstar platform. When
I go to enable the wifi adapter in the Allstar wireless control menu, it
only gives the option to enable/disable wlan0, however my adapter is wlan1.

Is there a way to modify this menu to allow the enabling and disabling more
than 1 wifi adapter? Or at least tweak it into using wlan1? Ideally, I want
to disable wlan0 and enable wlan1 and keep it persistent when rebooted.

Thanks!
