PrusaLink with a Pi 2b+??

While I know it's unsupported and would prob run slower, can you install PrusaLink on a Pi 2b+ with wifi dongle??

I have one laying around and would like to add wifi/prusa link to a mk3s+.

Are there any other devices PrusaLink can be installed to (ie old cell phone or other sbc)??

RE: PrusaLink with a Pi 2b+??

Update - I'm still looking for help, however I did go ahead and write PrusaConnect to an SD card my old school Pi 2B+ and it's working! ... more or less. The Pi 2B+ does not have built in Wifi and although I've tried two different wifi dongles, I can't get them to connect! I can however connect to my network via a lan cable. I've also been able to connect 2 different webcams - a no-name camera and a Logitech 270 

 

Question - Can anyone help me get the USB wifi dongles working??? 

Any help is appreciated!!
