Almost certainly if that's the default.

No, if it was linked to from somewhere I wouldn't have been able to access it 
without network and I didn't note it down otherwise.

Yes, it identified it (correctly) and indicated it needed a driver installing 
manually.

I might give ndiswrapper a go. The device is perfectly solid in Linux so I'm 
more likely to stick with that than open my wallet for more hardware. I'll keep 
it in mind for future purchases though.
