I don't know. How can I find out?
(Preferably without cracking the thing open. ;-)

http://acx100.sourceforge.net/matrix.html claims "Chipset TNETW1450"
and "support should be quite easy" - but that entry is two years old
and the "Model" link doesn't work, so I'm not sure how far that can
be trusted.

Thanks,
Tilman
