[NTLUG:Discuss] Belkin Wireless USB Network

Belkin makes several USB devices, but I do not believe there are any 
drivers for the USB wireless NICs, I have a couple of D-Link wireless 
NICs laying around and those are not supported either.  Not only that, 
but D-Link has not been very forthcoming with specs so I could work on a 
driver myself.  All of their PCI/PCMCIA wireless adapters are supported 
though.  Hope this helps.
