Hi Antii

As a follow up to this I had another look at it today.
I remembered I had also been testing a DVICO Dual Digital 4 r2 card in this 
box.
I decided to reload a disk image of a MythBuntu installation that originally 
had a Winfast Dongle Gold installed.
Happy to report that the device works perfectly, without requiring any 
changes to settings.

Regards
David
