The MB front panel USB 2.0 connection is usually a nine pin header. A MB front panel USB 3.0 header is a 19 pin connection.

 

USB WIFI adapters normally connect to a USB port at the top, front, or back of the chassis.

 

Do you have a USB WIFI adapter that connects directly to a MB header?

 

You could also do a PCIe WIFI card or a M.2 WIFI card if your MB supports either option.

Hi Bill_To, I use a Asus PC4-AX3000 Adapter with direct connection to MB header. I found now a USB (2.0) Connection to put the 9 pin connection. The Wifi is working now. Thanks for assistance.

Kind regards globi13
