Hello,

i wondered wether it is possible to connect my Hermes via USB and to install it on my WinXP as a WiFi-Adapter.

I hade several problems sharing the wifi-connection to my Laptop, and my isp will not enable my phone-line before the 14.09.2007... i knoiw it is only one more week, but it would be great to use some of the open neighbours networks to check my mail and use my onlinebanking.

anyone has done this before?

greetings
