Anyone know of a third party WIFI/WRLS USB stick that works with the Patriot Box?

[nookers]

Ive been trying to buy one of these Wifi/Wireless adapters in Canada for weeks and I can never snag one in time.

has anyone tested another manufacturers WIFI usb stick to see if it will work?
If so .. which model?

I want the Patriot one but I cant get it anywhere.

Thank you,

Patriot promised a WIFI compatibility list in the near future.
Meanwhile, Candacomputers (East) and XpressCanada (West) are taking backorders for $25 and $22 respectively.

realtek chipset is the wireless USB adapter .. the kind people at Patriot finally got back to me.

Now I have to figure out why I cant remove subtitles from files and why sometimes I get a video error where a green text is keep popping up and depixelating.

So where can I get a wireless N USB adapter with a realteck chipset that will work with the PBO? I am not sure what I am looking for???

Its weird,

I get an email from one person at Patriot saying that I have to use Realtek drivers .. and another that said any Wireless G usb will work

They dont list them because they will only handle tech support for
products they sell.

I give up

Found this on another forum...

According to the libraries installed in the player, I think only the following Realtek Wireless Chipset are supported, at least for now :

11N8709
RTL8187
RTL8191SU

Is this correct? Anyone know where to get one of these?
