Default WiFi USB Dongle

Does anyone know if one of these will work with a TM6800?

I don't think it will.

What should work though, is the wireless ethernet bridge from Linksys for example.

Linksys by Cisco Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge WET54G

I've never tried, but I have seen the question posted on other forums. The answer always comes back as no.

Robbo's suggestion would be your best bet.

Am I right in thinking the ethernet bridge is somewhat fussy about what it'll link with?

How would it take to my bog standard O2 wireless router?

Have a look and this bit of kit it can be used as a 3g router Edimax nLite Wireless 3G Cable Router with Print Server : 3G Routers : Maplin

Q- Can you confirm whether this will work with a USB Mobile Broadband Dongle, i.e. by plugging the dongle into the USB port on the Edimax Router. Thanks. -
Answer- Yes the product does support that.

That kit will not do what the OP originally wanted. He wanted to connect his TM 6800 to a wireless network. He already has a wireless network.
