OTHO, if the laptop has a PCMCIA Type II 32-bit CardBus slot, one could get a PCMCIA card with USB 2.0 ports and that might do better (I assume, but don't know, that these adapters can in fact use the cardbus interface to reach the 480 Mbps max of USB 2.0): http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=cardbus+usb+2.0 -- Lem MS MVP -- Networking To the moon and back with 64 Kbits of RAM and 512 Kbits of ROM. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_Computer Lem wrote:

You probably are right though and the pc card is the way to go. Since the OP didn't tell us what kind of computer he has, he'll have to come back if he wants more help. "Yeh". ;-) Malke Hi
Many times this message comes when using computers from few years ago. Some computers have a mix of USB 1.1 Ports and USB 2.0 Ports. Or USB 1.1 in the back and USB2.0 available through headers on the Motherboard. The headers can be used by installing header to standard USB jack bracket that are placed on an available slot opening on the back of the computer. Otherwise a PCI 2 card (as mentioned by Malke), or a USB2 Cardbus for Laptop can help. Jack (MVP-Networking).
