Most USB dongles are backward-compatible with USB-1...only difference is the speed of the link to your router, e.g. if it will do 54MBits/sec in a USB-2 port, you will probably get 11-36 MBits/sec in a USB-1 port. Really not an issue if your broadband connection is less than 11 MBits/sec.......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......

I had this with my BT router and Belkin wireless dongle was flakey at times, so i bought a BT wireless dongle and it works terrifically (if terrifically is a word!!!)"Well, that sounds like a pretty good deal. But I think I got a better one. How about I give you the finger, and you give me my phone call"
