The bitter pill of UPS experience!!! The price of that I'd be very surprised if they bothered with import duty.

I brought a Linksys wireless router and Belkin USB adaptor back with me from NY and both work fine with my eircom BB

Dont american wireless products use a slightly different slice of frequencies (i.e. more than european ones) and also use a slightly higher power

no problems with the frequencies, but did have to buy a 220v to 110v converter plug, got it from Radionics, less than €10 if I remember correctly...

Any idea what the catalogue number of that converter was? Having trouble finding it!
