You can try downloading and installing the software drivers from their support page for the WG111v2.

    Thanks for the reply.

     

    As it turns out the router works and I am able to connect wirelessly without using the adapter.

     

    Thanks

      That's great.  Just curious.  How were you able to connect wirelessly without using the adapter?  You said your computer is not wireless.

        I am actually a Mac person and I am using this old Dell Dimension Desktop that someone gave me termporarily.

        So it has been trial and error figureing out how to get this going.

         

        I had bought a Netgear router a while back off Craigslist  because my current local ISP did not have wireless access, just a modem.

         

        I did this hook up once before and after searching I found that I needed to get the adapter and I found a Netgear adapter at the local Goodwill and hooked it up. So it's been super cheap to use it.

         

        Anyway, last time I hooked it up for a wireless connection I used the adapter, so I hooked it up again and kept getting that stupid popup above so I came here.

         

        This time I really am not sure what happened. After I plugged in the router and the adapter I had a wireless connection and the adapter did not blink the little blue light like it did before and i was connected. The router was lit up correctly.

         

        The Dell has this "Wireless Network Setup WIzard." I used it again and could not figure out why all of a sudden I was connected,

        even though the adapter was hooked up to the tower ( yeah, this is an old Dell but works fine :)  ) and was not blinking.

         

        I just went back and opened up the WNSW and remember that  there are 2 ways - with a USB flash drive or adding another network. I did not use the flash drive so I used the other, which is what I used last time.

         

        Either way, I really don't know what happened. The adaper is not blinking and I have a wireless connection.

         

        So, I dunno. Last time there was a Netgear windown that popped up with the info of other networks etc. And there was an icon in the

        menu on the bottom. I don't have any of that now. I am just connected.
