Compatible USB network device rquired.
Hi,
I have a Dell PE2800 runing Windows 2000 Server.
I suspect that the embedded network card is faulty. So I need to connect to the LAN by some other means. Wireless is not an option in this case.
So, I would like a USB network adaptor.
Does anyone know of a compatible device? One that is known to work in a Dell PE2800 with Win2000 Server?
Help appreciated.
Regards

Hi, thanks for the response.
I understand the physical compatability issues, but I was really referring to compatability with Windows 2000 Server OS.
Anyone with relevant experience prepared to help?

The U in USB stands for Universal. Although I do not have experience with USB network adapters and a PE2800, it would seem to me that any such device should work with any computer in the Universe that has a USB 2.0 port, which the PE2800 does. You might also consider a PCI network adapter (cost < $15) if you single PCI slot is not poplulated.
