Route #3 - USB 802.11 a/b/g

[Jim Stapleton]

OK, I picked up a USB connector but am still having troubles. It's the
D-Link listed in the driver page (sadly, it's the only thing the store
had, the linksys were WUSB54GS and GSC, the belkin was a 3000 model
instead of a 2000 model).

Anyway, I get this when I try to connect, any ideas on what I should do next?
