Sorry guys - I've been tied up in a conference and just got back after a very heavy night with the store managers. I'll get to this in the morning once I clear my head & the 479 un-open mails and get a handle on the whole thing. Chipset for last 2 versions of DSE USB WiFi 11b adapters were the same - I need to access stuff at work to see what it was though :-(
Regards, Chris...

That is the older unit, the new ones are brown.

I'm not sure if the chips are the same... Chris?

Has anybody had any luck using the Dick Smith 802.11b USB stick?
They are $66, which is pretty cheap, and I want to use a 'standard'
802.11 device that can be freely swapped around on laptops
and desktop machines - Linux and Windows. DSE usually show
Linux compatibility on the box, but not on these.


See O'Reilly Network: Recipe for a Linux 802.11b Home Network

What is the DSE part number of the device you have bought?
