Here's the one that works the best with HS or Mojave:

Any brand of dongle that is RTL8811AU chipset based should work with the correct driver installed.
The driver linked in Post #1 of this thread should work with this. The TP-Link Mac version works too.

The official Realtek download page only offers Windows drivers for this and related chipsets. No macOS drivers.

Do you have Yosemite installed or something newer ? Where did you get the driver ?
I can try the USB stick on an 10.9.5 Mavericks (Asus P5B, Q6600, Chameleon)...

The driver come with the USB stick. The vendor claim that stick are OS-X compatible.
I try to find a newer driver on the web, without success

precision: the stick work very well under Windows 7 and Linux Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (and then, was not defective)
 
I just tried the driver of your link.
It seems better:
In Info.plist of the driver, the RTL8192 was in the list of compatible chipsets...
May I put a fake ID in my config.plist with Clover Configurator?

I don't think it will make a difference but if you want to go ahead and see.
 
sorry, it is not I would like to write (I am not so fluent in English)
May be should I put a fake ID... ?
I don't know how it work. The fake ID must be the vendor ID, the product ID or?

I wouldn't waste time trying that approach. Return what you've got and get the EDUP wifi that was linked previously. Better yet get a PCIe Wifi BT card that is natively supported.

 
OK, I will make others tests, but your solution sound good and reasonable
tomorrow, I will try at a place nearer the Wifi router (for better signal)

but I just see another (and more important than Wifi) problem: the fans of my new RX580 doesn't turn when OS-X is open. That became the 1st problem I will must fix. If I solute the Wifi problem, I will make a report here.

In all case, thanks for all your help!
