Using a dongle instead of ethernet lead or wireless bridge

[seanmckeown]

can a usb internet dongle be used on a dm500?

[ohno]

if you put the dongle in a router yes it can, if your asking can you put the dongle in the dm no you cant.

Hi Seanmckeown,

I managed to do this in my mobile home with a 3g dongle and a router, if you want details of what I used let me know?

Basically moved into rental accomodation which looks like its been used as a squatt and im not joking its a complete pig sty and the last month ive been hbelping him go through the whole house making it look right.
Had a load of junkies living there and every wall and door has holes punched in them.

Was looking for aa cheap way of setting him up with a Dreambox thats all.
