A USB (Universal Serial Bus) network adapter plugs into your computer's USB port, connecting your personal computer (PC) to a network that allows you to share files with other users. USB network adapters apply oftentimes to a wired Ethernet connection or Wi-Fi (short for wireless-fidelity) connection. Note that, if your computer is a few years old, it probably has more than one USB port.

Unfortunately, the Blitzz company website has closed down. In addition, one of the major distributors of Blitzz USB adapters, Global Marketing Partners, no longer lists the product on their website.

Finding a used Blitzz USB adapter also seems to be close to impossible. Though found online, downloads of Blitzz USB drivers software may be corrupted or may require unnecessarily complicated permissions.

Online information on Blitzz USB adapters features is also scant. Former product distributor websites like Amazon, used product auction websites like eBay, and third-party user forums contain the most available information. These sources describe some product features, such as:

1. The ability to share Internet connections, files, and printer functions
2. Wireless roaming that allows users to freely switch between access ports without disturbing the network connection
3. The ability to reach speeds of 108Mbps (megabytes per second)
4. Compatible with Microsoft's Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows ME, and Windows 98 operating systems

Note, however, that the lack of compatibility with the Linux operating system may be a negative for some users
