FWIW, this is now the back of my PB540c:

This is a Netgear wnce2001, which runs fine off 5V 500mA USB, although says it wants 1A. The powerbooks are only rated to 200mA on the ADB port (desktops are apparently rated to 500mA). This seems to work fine with an ADB to USB adapter (power only, no data of course). In any case, the 540c is now on an 802.11g network without trouble (yet ;) ).
