    There is only a select few sticks working on the vix image and theres a topic on the forum that lists them.
    In regards to the virgin media wireless sticks? They dnt work on the duo on vix image, i tested when they first came out and again a few days ago. There are no drivers compiled for it

    awww man , i thought i had won something good too getting them to send me the latest dongle out (netgear wnda3200) what a pity , and my Dlink one which is firmware version 1.20E isnt listed as a working one either, although if it had a later firmware version on it according to previous posts it would work, mines is a Dlink EWA140, is there a way to permanently update the firmware on this stick, i looked on Dlink's site and got a download, but it appears to me that this only updates the firmware while its plugged into the pc thats using it and not a sat box, is that right or wrong and is there a way to permanently update the firmware on the stick ? anyone know ?
