Have a look at the official Quick Start Guide (in PDF) <a href="http://www.olidata.com/wusb/files/documents/wusb/QuickStartGuide_en.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.olidata.com/wusb/files/documents/wusb/QuickStartGuide_en.pdf</a>. It solves your puzzle. Talking about flash drives or 2.5" portable hard drives, I think if you actually need to plug the adapter in to the mains, it loses all the point for having it in the first place.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[BlackCoffeeNoSugar]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2008 5:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Olidata rolls out Wisair-based Wireless USB adapter set]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/17/olidata-rolls-out-wisair-based-wireless-usb-adapter-set/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/17/olidata-rolls-out-wisair-based-wireless-usb-adapter-set/</guid><description><![CDATA[well if you do 11 seconds of research you would find out that it's not a recharge base, it's just an extension adapter... so you don't have to climb behind your computer to unplug it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[StalematE]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2008 5:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Olidata rolls out Wisair-based Wireless USB adapter set]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/17/olidata-rolls-out-wisair-based-wireless-usb-adapter-set/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/17/olidata-rolls-out-wisair-based-wireless-usb-adapter-set/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah, but can it Aircrack?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[McLovin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2008 6:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Olidata rolls out Wisair-based Wireless USB adapter set]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/17/olidata-rolls-out-wisair-based-wireless-usb-adapter-set/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/17/olidata-rolls-out-wisair-based-wireless-usb-adapter-set/</guid><description><![CDATA[Never mind, I'm stupid! -1]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[McLovin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2008 6:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Olidata rolls out Wisair-based Wireless USB adapter set]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/17/olidata-rolls-out-wisair-based-wireless-usb-adapter-set/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/17/olidata-rolls-out-wisair-based-wireless-usb-adapter-set/</guid><description><![CDATA[i was going to buy these until i found out they were 139.99 canadian. f that]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[collegekid13]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2008 6:26PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
