Already got a Belkin one and it's rubbish. Not really suitable for my setup I don't think.0

Connected to my tower PC, I have had the belkin ones and the internal PCI ones and they just dont cut it. This one has never let me down, the dog has even chewed it and its only got half its case the other half is missing and its still going strong (infact when I noticed it was chewed I went and bought another one incase this one failed) 6 months later!!! Good connection 15ft away from router and through an internal wall, although it is a BT home hub so it might be that they are both BT peripherals that make them work so well."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"

Thanks all!
Gonna check out which ones seem more suited to the Apple Airport Extreme router that I use. My Laptop works fine with it, the Apple ibook obviously works fine, it's the Sony desktop/belkin USB that ain't doing what they should.0
