Tested with Debian from SD, but should work in Angstrom with some work. The ipheth wwan0 device only provides a connection over the 3G modem, even if you're connected to a wifi network. I used the iproxy and SSH tunneling method with proxychains to get to the wifi network. | |
| HTC Desire | not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | 500mA | USB A | Yes, works. | Yes, works. | Requires internet connection sharing to be enabled from the phone. |
USB to Ethernet adapters
| Device | Driver | Connector | Supported standard | Current draw | Suggested connection to Pandora | Tested in Linux | Tested on Pandora | Additional comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Apple USB Ethernet Adapter MB442Z/A | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | standard-A port | Yes | Yes | Works perfectly on the Pandora. You may need to left-click the networking icon on the panel in Xfce, and click "Ifupdown (bnep0)" in order to connect to the internet. | |
| EU.MARK USB 10/100M RJ45 Ethernet Network Adapter Dongle (MosChip MCS7830) | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | standard-A port | Yes | Yes | Works on Pandora (plug and play) - USB ID: 9710:7830 - bought from DealExtreme | |
| Wii USB 2.0 adapter (use ASIX AX 88772 USB 2.0 chip) | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | standard-A port | Yes | Yes | Works perfectly on the Pandora. I have not the official one from Nintendo but a clone from dealextrem | |
| Belkin Gigabit USB 2.0 Network Adapter | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | standard-A port | Yes | Yes | Works fine, the shape of it make is a bit awkward to fit if you connect it directly, but it has a short adapter cable. I only get ~95Mbit on a gigabit network, but then the pandora's cpu maxes out. (it may be that the driver/usb stack isn't very well optermised), has horribly bright blue led's. | |
| Connectland USB 2.0 Ethernet Adapter | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | standard-A port | Yes | Yes | ID 0b95:7720 ASIX Electronics Corp. AX88772 - Works fine, Sometimes a reboot is necessary (ZaxxonHF5RC1). |
USB WiFi adapters
The Pandora stock kernel doesn't seem to come with any wireless driver support outside of the internal wifi chip. The only way you'll get wireless working is to build your own kernel with it included or try compat-wireless.

| Belkin N1 Wireless USB Adapter (F5D8051) ("Ver. 2053") (MARVELL v1021) | N/A | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | Not connecting it at all. | Reported to work with ndiswrapper. | No native driver support and ndiswrapper obviously won't work. | There's a previous revision of this dongle which is supposed to have a Ralink chip, but they revised it and put a different chip inside. | |
| Cisco/Linksys AE1000 High Performance Wireless-N USB Adapter | rt3572sta (RT3572USB) | Standard-A | USB 2.0 | USB A | Reportedly works. | Works with a modified driver. | Download the driver from ralink's driver site, edit ./common/rtusb_dev_id.c, before "#endif // RT2870" add "{USB_DEVICE(0x13B1,0x002F)},", compile. NOTE: Broke after three days! |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LaCie Rikiki 250GB USB 2.0 2.5" Hard Drive | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | standard-A port via powered High Speed Hub | Not working on Pandora | This drive does not work on a Pandora. Not only does it fail to spin up, but it causes the Pandora's screen to pulsate wildly, much like an old CRT would if you placed a speaker or a magnet near to it. I have not yet tested this with a powered hub. |
| Verbatim 250GB Model #47580 Hard Drive | Not required | direct | USB 2.0 | Unknown | direct | Works on Pandora | Tested by almatuk. "worked an absolute treat when plugged into the Pandora. Watched videos directly from it at full speed, no need for powered USB hub. Had issues playing roms directly off it however as it was formatted NTFS. I'm sure if I formatted to FAT32 these would disappear." |
| Western Digital 160GB Elements External USB 2.0 2.5" Hard Drive | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | standard-A port via powered High Speed Hub | Works on Pandora | This drive works just fine with the Pandora. |
| Western Digital 250GB Elements Portable USB 2.0 2.5" Hard Drive | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct or standard-A port via High Speed Hub | Works on Pandora | Works perfectly fine with Pandora. |
| Western Digital 250GB My Passport Essential USB 2.0 2.5" Hard Drive | Not required | direct? | USB 2.0 | Unknown | direct? | Maybe | Tested by TheDarkSpectrum48K. "Works perfectly!", but the 2nd time it didn't work. |

| Western Digital 1TB My Passport Essential SE External USB 2.0 2.5" Hard Drive | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct or through powered High Speed Hub | Works on Pandora | Tested by Mycohl This drive works without problems.

| Seagate Seagate® Expansion™ External Drives | Not required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct | Not working on Pandora | Tested by Hitnrun. "Isn't even detected in lsusb (drive powered by external power source)" |
| Freecom 250GB 2.5" portable | Not Required | standard-A | USB 2.0 | Unknown | Direct | Works on Pandora | Just works perfectly when plugged into the Pandora. Inside it's a Samsung Model HM251JX so I guess anything based on that will also work OK. |
