I replied to Masque b4 I saw your post
but here it is as printed on the dongle:
WG111v2 S/N1AC166BK05589 MAC00184D028858
It`s connected to a rear USB port via a USB cable supplied with it.It pulses a blue light.
I should add here that the router was NOT supplied by VM but purchased from Argos.
I say this since the words "VM router" have been applied (by the mods?) to the thread title.

What would be ideal would be for the pc to connect to the net wirelessly,ie,without an ethernet cable connecting the modem and router.As it stands that isn`t possible.
Wireless operation is not a priority for me,though I know my son wants to solve the puzzle for self satisfaction.
The "wireless adaptor" is the Netgear dongle described above which may or may not fulfill that function.My son thinks it does.
The PC is running XP pro on SP3 with 2Gb RAM.My main browser is Opera though IE8 is also installed.
Sorry to confuse.It`s not easy getting it down in coherant language.
