Added: Edimax EW-7318Ug Wi-Fi USB adaptor. This fixed a problem with the Wi-Fi killing itself during use, as well as 802.11n (like the BT Home Hub) interfering with the default adaptor. Every 27025 owner will probably need to do this. To replace the Wi-Fi adaptor, do the following:

1. Order the Edimax EW-7318Ug Wi-Fi USB adaptor. According to reports, the Edimax EW-7318USg will also work and comes with an antenna which can be stuck out of the blanked USB port.
2. Unplug the radio (safety first!). Unscrew the six screws from the back of the radio.
3. Carefully open up the radio and locate the USB adaptor, in the centre-right of the radio.
4. Carefully prise off the USB adaptor from the double sided sticky tape and prise the adaptor out of the USB socket
5. Insert the new adaptor into the USB socket
6. Close up the radio, put the screws back in and test it.
