I can pretty well reliably, automagically or manually, connect to both 
my Linksys ?540G? hub as well as my Marconi Premium Combo ADSL box & of 
course using 3G with my Aspire modem via Vodacom also works.
Have not as yet done any wondering around the town to see what else I 
can connect to but I do not forsee a problem.
