Thanks for your replies, I'll find that mate, he's allready on his way over just doesn't know it yet

But on the USB point... if it is 12meg, then should that not be ok?? or is it a case of with all things, the 'actual' rate is not that of the published rate?? In other words, what is the spped limitation on a USB 1.1 adapter in reality? I guess I could ditch my newly purchased USB tingy and go get a PC card tingy instead...
Do really appreciate your thoughts, im feelin like the wireless waves have fried my brain on this one, ouch
