Cannot connect NETGEAR wireless USB adapters to Windows8, 8.1 & 10. Error: "Limited Connectivity"

Hi Team,

 

After installing the NETGEAR wireless USB adapters in the Windows8, 8.1 & 10 getting a message "Limited Connectivity"

 

TSH done so far..

 

#1. Uninstalled the existing driver and updated the latest driver

#2. Restarted PC

#3. Tried with different wireless channels and security settings

Still getting the same message, unable to connect. Not getting IP too.

 

Thanks,

NetRags

    Hi NetRags,

     

    Welcome to Community!

     

    If you have any antivirus or firewall enabled, try disabling it for the mean time while installing the NETGEAR adapter. May I know what is the model number of your adapter?

     

    Regards,
