I want to buy a USB WIFI dongle for my laptop and the one ive seen from ebay is this.
260210608577

However ive noticed that it says its compatable with wireless 802.11b or 802.11G routers.

My wireless router is a comtrend 536+ which was given to me by my ISP telefonica.

Ive looked into its specifications and it says that it has 802.1x

have a look here.

Will the USB dongle work?

Well the web page is in Spanish so I couldn't read it, but I did see 54Mbps, so it is either G or A. I highly doubt it is A, so yes the USB dongle will work.

Oops sorry im half british/spanish and didnt realise i'd given you the spanish spec.
great thanks for the advise!!:) I guess the 54mps is something I failed to look at myself.
