      The VAP11G works very well with these boxes, search "Wireless Bridge" or "Openmedia" on google / ebay and you should find them,

                  Couple of mates using them vonets wifi and they freeze and drop connection often. Search this site for "6 pound to make dm800 wireless " for comparable USB dongles

                      They have faulty wifi bridges then mate, with the first batch from china they had a cable fault witch caused this but now has been resolved and no problems ever again,,, mines just as good as a wired connection i never have loss of connection..

                        I've had 3 vonets, one went back as it died totally. Another kept freezing dropping connection and think it has died also now, the 3 is being used for an Xbox and works fine.

                        I would use the USB port for the power (5v) instead of the 12v pass through as I think overtime they over heat and die with the 12v. (Hence the USB powered xbox still alive and kicking)
