Does anyone here know anything about USB to Ethernet adaptors? i.e.
something that would allow me to add a USB HDD to a network?

I am planning to by a Topfield 58000 PVR, which has a USB port only for
moving files on/off it. When you connect it to a PC, you can view the
files/folders in Mass Storage Device mode - but i don't want to keep
dragging it upstairs to my PC. I want to add it to my network using my
Squeezebox3 as a wireless bridge.

What i plan is this;

PC -> Ethernet cable -> Wireless access point -> WiFi -> Squeezebox 3
-> Ethernet cable -> Ethernet to USB adaptor -> Topfield PVR.

It should work, right?

Thing is i has never used an Ethernet-USB adaptor, has anyone got/used
one or have any link to suitable products?

And what issues may i encounter using the SB3 as a wireless bridge?
