If you visit the support pages:

Support | NETGEAR

you can feed in your model number and find the documentation for your hardware.

It will also have any software, firmware and drivers for your device.

Look for the model number on the label on the device.

You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers about your hardware, in the appropriate section for your device. That's probably here:

I had the same problem, no disc drive and obviously no internet connection. What I did was I downloaded the driver onto my cell phone and then plugged my cell into my desk top computer and transferred the file. I don't know if that is the best way to go about it, but it worked and I don't have any issues.
