No, it's not supported. It looks like this device is based on the Realtek RTL8822BU chipset which is supported only by the Amlogic builds of LibreELEC (presumably some Amlogic device comes with this chipset built-in, or more likely it was added at a time when Amlogic development within LibreELEC became a bit of a nightmare and changes from that time are still being undone to this day).

In short, we're trying to get rid of out of tree Realtek support as it's a support nightmare, and we have no plans to add any additional drivers.

You can upload your latest zip file from the Logfiles Samba share and we can check the contents to be certain of the chipset (as the hardware used in these dongles tends to vary by region).
