Hello people!!

I just poped in to ask a rather generic question.. I intend to buy a pci usb 2 card for my peg2 and i need to know if there is any limitations on the chipsets or if there is a list of compatability of usb cards i can check in order to buy something that i wont throw away!

Thank you in advance!

Hello Npanag!!

USB cards with VIA VT6212L chip should work. Some Trust USB cards have it onboard.
I'm using a D-Link Su-520 (4 external port + 1 internal) and it works great.

Thanks Jambalah! I will try one with this chip.
They are extremely cheap anyway.!

bump! wrong post!

I have reviewed a USB 2.0 card under Pegasos/MorphOS : http://obligement.free.fr/articles/cptvusb20-5.php

will do that of course

Hi,

recently I bought a PCI USB card with a NEC-Chip, which is more recommended.

It is about 10 times faster than the internal!!!

...ehm... checked my usb card.... =)
It has NEC chip. Don't know why I thought it was the other one...
Sometimes I buy pci cards just to test them and I guess I did the same with th D-Link, In fact, I remember that it didn't work with older Poseidon version but fine with Linux. Chris Hodges made a good work...
Thanks Grooves for this tip!
