what external usb wifi adapters work with Monterey and newer?

"what external usb wifi adapters work with Monterey and newer?: I am interested in adding an external wifi adapter to a M1 or M2 laptop running Monterey OS 12.6 or newer. The adapter can be USB or SDXC. Everywhere I look I'm being told they only support up to Catalina 10.15 OS. I am sure this is not correct, so I'd like to find out directly from Apple."

For note:

Where are you seeing this? Contact the Manufacturer, or look on the original packaging Apple is not the manufacturer of this device.

"Hi, exactly, I’ve revived response from manufacturers, TP-Link, netgear, and a couple more telling me that their Mac OS compatible usb wifi adapters only work up to Catalina. No answers in why this is the case. many help would be appreciated."

Catalina 64-Bit Restriction:

Those manufacturers' device(s), probably all use 32-bit software. Apple dropped 32-bit app support in macOS Catalina. So, ether get 32-bit drivers from the manufacture, or upgrade you Mac to Catalina or after. IMPORTANT: Get the drivers from the manufacturer, and none other. Doing elsewise, you may end up with spyware or malware installed.

there is really good Wi-Fi built into the models you listed.

¿Why do you want a USB Wi-Fi adapter?

So we may need to "think outside the box" to try to find a solution for you.
