- csm746NoviceSome of this may not help, but try uninstalling the Genie app and re-install the stand alone install you will find on the CD. This will re-install the driver only and see if it will recognize.

You forgot to mention your OS. Try to plug the adapter in a different USB port on your computer. - soccer0104AspirantI am using windows 7 and i did the stand alone install and still have nothing.
- jmizoguchiVirtuosomake sure you user account is admin on windows user account
- soccer0104Aspiranti tried that and still nothing
- jmizoguchiVirtuosomake sure you are not using USB ports used by other USB device
USB port are paired in block. two USB ports per block so try different USB ports. - soccer0104Aspiranti have tried different usb ports and still nothing, when i plugged the usb in it said the device was ready to use, but the genie part doesnt find it.
- Mark_KTutoruninstall the gene SW and clean the registry.
delete the usb device for the adaptor.
install the genie first than plug the adaptor in. - soccer0104Aspirantwhat do you look for in the registry?
- mlreadusmcretAspirantClick run in the Windows start menu, type "regedit" (without quote marks). Click OK, Go to edit in the menu bar, click find, type "netgear". Hope this works for you!
