A7000 Nighthawk AC1900. No internet

I have no disk drive to install it on my computer so it says to download it on the site. But I can’t because I have no internet, that’s why I bought the adapter

    How did you post this message? Use that?

     

    As plemans says, it doesn't matter what you download with, as long as you can transfer the files to your PC.

     

    You could also see if it will work without any drivers from Netgear. Microsoft may have included a generic driver in your version of Windows.
