Another working wireless solution, but with resume problems
USB Wireless recommendation, power problem

Just writing in to let you all know that I got the NetGear MA101 USB wireless (802.11b) network adapter working with the embed98.img on my DOC. USB Legacy support has to be enabled in the BIOS and the adapter *must* be plugged in before the unit is powered on (restarts of the unit won't work wirelessly -- they have to be cold boots).

This leads me to my power/standby question.

I'm using San472's APM power button fix (http://www.geocities.com/nojx2/), but the adapter is no longer seen in 98se upon resume. The LEDs still have power, but the unit is no longer identified by 98 as availalble. If I unplug and replug, the unit no longer gets enough power for the LEDs. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.

I will be trying a powered USB hub tonight to see if that solves the problem.

Wanted to let you all know about this one, as these adapters can be picked up REALLY cheap (<$20) after rebates.
