What does hooking up the usb cable to a boards header do for the device I havn'r used it and my wi-fi seems just fine?

i am not sure but i think if you plug it in USB header with the USB Cable that is come with CG WB300D so you can safe your PCI Express bandwith.

Hey mate,

Is your bluetooth working without the usb plugged in as well or only the wifi??

I ask because I had both wifi and bluetooth working perfectly than out of no where my bluetooth stopped working, the wifi is still fine but no BT. Checked the lights on the card and wifi is lit but BT is not.

Trying to troubleshot the problem, but I think to be honest it will just be a case of a dead chip

Did anyone figure out the answer to this one? Is the USB really required? I'd like to know as I'm hoping to use the header to connect a internal card reader. As there are only 2x USB2.0 headers I either have to unplug the wireless card or the front USB ports.

Thanks,
Graeme

the usb cable is for Bluetooth if you unplugged usb cable then your Bluetooth is not working and i am sure about this.
