VIP 211K and wireless network

[NR2D]

My 2 VIP 211 Ks have aUSB connection on the back panel. Can I use this connection to connect a 802.11 doggle so rather than running hard wire connections to my router I can use a wireless router?

Buy a DLINK DAP-1522. They're around $100 at Fry's. Put it in Bridge Mode. They have 4 ports so you can hook up your XBOX, etc., too.
