which wifi should i buy for skybox f3?

[Hadron]

As mentioned above, a dongle that uses the RALINK 5370 chipset should work, such as this one:-

WIFI 150MBPS WIRELESS ADAPTOR 802.11 B G N LAN NETWORK MINI USB DONGLE ADAPTER | eBay

I'm going to order the box off e-bay tonight without the dongle and i'll try it when I get it.

Hopefully it works

Hi did this work for you as I would like to get one if it works.

very new to all this and im currently running a ethernet lead for internet.
if i was to use a dongle am i right in thinking i would have to remove the hard drive to be able to use it.

Home plugs are not dear and are alot more stable compared to wireless

wifi bridge

Personally mate, I'd get a mains powered WiFi bridge instead of a USB adapter.
The downside is you need a mains socket for it, but the upside is you can use the ethernet port on the back of your box and keep the only USB free for PVR/backup

Something like this

Hope that helps.

Hi Sir,

I would like to know in details how to configure this wireless bridge. Im having a modem with internet connection and i think the brand is aztech(not so sure due to its provided by the ISP) and i would like to configure my linksy router to be the wifi bridge and connect it to the SKYBOX ETHERNET PORT. please help. Thx.
