    hey guys,
    my cousin uses a zoom 5510a usb dsl modem for his broadband. i was able to go on internet through his laptop(vista) till now, but now hes moved out n i thnk he lost the installation cd. i wanted to know if i can find drivers anywhere else? company site only has windows drivers...

    n also is it possible to covert it into wireless if i buy a different router like belkin or netgear...
