Seriously, it took me three seconds to go to the TRENDnet page and discover that it uses the RT3573 chip set. <http://wikidevi.com/wiki/TRENDnet_TEW-684UB> I will leave discovering if the run(4) driver supports it as a lesson for the student. -- Jerry ♔ Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
