AC1200 WiFi USB Adapter installation

First instruction: Insert the CD. I don't have a CD drive

Second instruction: If you don't have a CD drive, download the resource CD driver. If I could download a driver, that would indicate a WiFi connection, therefore I wouldn't need a WiFi adapter, would I!!!

    So download it on a different pc/laptop and transfer it using a usb flash drive. 

     

    Or move the pc/laptop to where theres an ethernet connection to hardwire it in to download the driver.

      Thanks for that. Yes I figured that out and it worked, despite Best Buy telling me it would not work. Thanks for being there
