I'm trying to install the NETGEAR WG111T router adapter software on my Windows XP 64-bit version... After it says to shut down computer, plug the device in, and restart, there are no further on-screen instruction as it says and I fail to install the driver... Please help
aparently netgear will not do these driver due to cost and the lack of interest, funny how other manufactures seem to make them. Thats customer service for ya :) :)
The solution I have is quite simple. I use Vista premium x64 so someone else can test it on Xp but it should work for both. In Vista the 1.3 version doesnt work so Facid's solution doesnt work for me.
[LIST=1] [*]Get the 2.1 setup for Vista and install it. [*]Go to your NETGEAR folder wherever you installed it to (Program Files x86 for me) and copy the DRIVERS folder to your desktop. [*]Uninstall the smartwizard and remove everything in the NETGEAR folder. [*]Plug in your WG111T. [*]Go to Device Manager and find your WG111T in the list, Right Click and Update Driver. [*]Browse to the DRIVERS folder on your desktop when it asks where to look for the driver and the WG111T will install. It should popup with a little message when it is completed but you will not be online yet.
[B]I dont know what you would do in Xp x64 system but I believe it has its own wireless manager like Vista and should be quite simalar.[/B] [*]IN VISTA go to the Connect To button in your Start menu, It should be under Computer and Network, it should show your router along with a 5 bar network strength graphic. [*]For me all I had to do was double click on the network and put in my WEP hex key and it conected. [/LIST]
