Need USB to Ethernet adapter for Windows 7 64bit

I need a USB to ethernet adapater for my laptop running Windows 7 64bit.  I need two network cards so I can do some development work.  I have the Belkin USB to Ethernet, but it wont support Windows 7 64bit.

J-Broken, have you used it with Windows 7 64bit?   I didnt see on there where it said it was compatible?


RWillus, thanks!  Looks like that one will work!  Have you used it?
Oh, will the Trendent model work with 10/100 also?
Yes, 10/100 compatable.  I use it myself
RWillus, i wander if the version from newegg is the same part number with correct suffix(revision)?  I am just wandering if there was a revision done to it so it would work for win 7 and x64?

Thanks a bunch RWillus!
I'm sure there was.  Most of the time it's hard to specify version when ordering from resellers.  You could probably call Newegg to verify
SSHEIN,  I have the Belkin Model F5D5050 and it also says compatible on the Windows Hardware list, but it does not work.

It appears the Trendnet is the only one listed on the manufacturer site that says Win 7 64Bit.
