I am using a Netgear WG111T USB adaptor on my PC, I can normally connect wirelessy to my modem/router no problem, but when I plug in an ipod/iphone into my PC, the connection gets lost. I look into the system and it says that there is no adaptor there.

Is this some sort of conflict between the Netgear dongle and the Iphone? e.g. both using USB, but only one can? Is there any way that I can get both working at the same time?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

If you are using a USB hub or front panel adapter on a desktop this may affect things.

Try plugging the Netgear and Apple stuff directly into the USB ports on the motherboard (at the back).
