Working Drivers for On Networks N150MA-199NAS

own3mall · ‎2021-01-27

Since Netgear won't provide us with working drivers for the On Networks N150MA-199NAS wireless adapter as illustrated here (https://community.netgear.com/t5/WiFi-Adapters/On-Networks-N150MA-199NAS-driver-not-available/td-p/1...) and here (https://community.netgear.com/t5/WiFi-Adapters/On-networks-N150MA-drivers-download/td-p/995565), I decided to find out which Realtek chipset this adapter is based off of. With that information, I was able to get the following drivers to work in Windows:

To install these drivers, you must use the "Have disk" method when updating the drivers for the device that shows up in Device Manager. Generic instructions can be found here:

For your version of Windows, be sure to select the right inf for 64bit or 32bit.

Please re-release the official drivers for any OnNetworks products, as your comparable products drivers do NOT work or install for the OnNetworks models! Super annoyed. Thanks Netgear.
