USB Adapter WNDAA3100v3

Connected this adapter to an HP Media Center PC with Windows 7.  System recognizes the hardware.  Trying to link to a wireless network in my house is a different story.  The adapter software recognizes the network,, but when trying to link it times out.  I can take my laptop (with built-in wireless) and position it in the same spot as the adapter and the laptop finds and connects to the network with no issues.  I've tried all the instructions in the Quick Start, and used the "Press and Connect" feature with no success. The modem I'm using is an ATT U-Verse  Model 5031NV.  I've spent 2 days on this so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi LHTex,

 

Make sure the modem router does not have any MAC filtering enabled. Try installing it on a different PC and check if the same problem. Visit support.netgear.com for drivers of the adapter.
