My last attempts on getting WUSB working with Linux are half a year ago,
but these were my results:

With the IOGear Kit (104) I was not able to establish a successful WUSB
link. In the Readme (from the sources and on linuxuwb.org) is described
how it is supposed to work. The pairing did go well and in dmesg I could
read that the insecure WUSB link was established. The protocol then
requires a secure connection, which does not come up. I posted the error
message in this mailing list some time ago.

After some tries I gave up. I assume that the reported successful WUSB
connection with Linux all used WHCI cards, which I do not have.

at the moment. Please correct me if I am wrong.
