Linksys USB200M USB Ethernet Adapter works?

spiff · 12-20-2006, 04:43 PM

Hi All,

according to http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/showdev.php?id=3543, the Linksys USB200M USB Ethernet Adapter uses the ax88772 chipset (like the KINAMAX USB lan adapter we know works)

if anyone has one, can you try it out and see if it works with the wii?

thanks!

there ought to be a way of finding out what other adapters use the same chipset, but i'm not sure where to look.

cheers,

i thought the wii had built in wifi? cant it sense your router to connect instead of getting an adapter?

The official Nintendo one is out now, so don't bother with the 3rd party ones that will probably be blocked in the next firmware update anyway
