I have several USB/WiFi adapters.

Hubby uses them on his desktop occasionally.

I have one Toshiba Qosmio laptop that has a dead NIC card and uses a USB/WiFi.

It’s not as rare as you think.

That STILL won't work. It requires the USB connection at both ends for the exploit, if it exists.

Just wow.....why not run a line from the desktop and fix your laptop? I mean USB adapters are notorious for all sorts of bad things happening to the user. Wouldn’t use it for any reason what so ever
