   Had me hunting all over the internet there !   
   You mean a 'D-link WNA2330' ?   
      
   According to the info I have from my potential purchase source,   
   it's not an 'Atheros' chipset (as fitted in the F5D7000)   
      
   The F5D70_10_, which I'm looking at,   
   uses a 'Ralink RT2500 chipset' !   
      
   Unfortunately the D-Link WNA2330 doesn't appear to   
   be available here (UK).   
      
   Thanks anyway.
