WIFI adapter for HD300?

Sorry to be a bit offtopic.. I see there were no wifi adapters listed for sale for the HD300. So anyone knows if there any specific brand/model that is still being sold on retailers like amazon/newegg, that supports the HD300 ??

The Belkin N1 USB adapter with cradle is the one to get.

This post includes the Belkin model number. One currently going on eBay cheap I believe.
I've ordered 3 of these and all of these have worked. Even able to stream blu Ray rips over them.

I have one that I had hooked up to my HD200, if you're interested, drop me a PM and I'll dig it up and give you the details on it.

AFAIK, the SageTV extenders are only known to work with the Ralink 2870 WiFi chipset.
USB WiFi adapters of a particular manufacturer and model number often use different chipsets as they become available over time. You'll need to pay attention to the hardware version as well. For the Belkin N1 USB WiFi adapter, it looks like you would need to find hardware version: F5D8051 v3 (https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Belkin_F5D8051_v3 as opposed to https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Belkin_F5D8051_v2).

Who knows, depending on what gets open sourced, we may be able to package new drivers into the firmware at some point in the future... maybe...
