If there's anyone still looking for an answer or solution to this challenge: I bought an ALFA AWUS036NHA usb wi-fi adapter and it works perfectly with Moode 7.0.1 + Raspberry Pi4 + 2.5 amp PSU. Increasing my signal from barely usable to quality 97%, level -42 dBm.
I'd prepared myself for the bother of installing drivers and tweaking this and that but in the end it was just plug-and-play. All I needed to do was disable my Pi's Integrated Wi-Fi adapter in the Moode settings and the USB adapter became the default. Moode really is pretty wonderful, isn't it?
I also used Moode's handy terminal (and the command below) to disable the blue flashing LED which would otherwise have driven me crazy. To do the same you'll need to find the adapter's folder name in sys/class/leds.
echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/class/leds/foldername/brightness
Hope this helps someone.
