If it's connected properly, that sounds like a dead battery. Try wrapping it in something waterproof and freezing it overnight. If that doesn't work, replace it.

the adapter is probably jammed you may need to use a little force for the switch also a little force to try and pry it may work without damaging it. please let me know if this helps if now i will glady do more research on it for you but this is what i found when i was looking up the adapter issue.

With Linksys game adapter there's no power switch on it when you plug it to a power outlet if adapter is working the light should come on.

You can follow these troubleshooting to determine if adapter is really bad or something else.

Make sure that the power adapter that you are using came with the wireless gaming adapter.
Power adapter is connected properly to the back of the adapter and the electrical outlet.
Electrical outlet is preferably a surge protector.
Try another electrical outlet.
Unplug and replug the power adapter.
Hold the reset button for a minute, while the adapter is connected to the electrical outlet.
If there is still no power light then it is possible that the adapter is defective, and have it replace if still under warranty.

- check if the adapter met the system requirements - uninstall any previous wireless adapters installed in the computer
- insert the adapter - wait if the adapter gets detected - if it's detected it'll ask for the setup CD. - run through the recommended option first and if it fails choose the advanced option - manually browse for the drivers that your system requires using the CD - if it still fails, try downloading the most recent the drivers for the adapter - if it fails again, try installing the adapter to a different computer. - if the adapter still won't work with the other computer its defective

Wireless Adapter is a device that will receive the wireless signals and will make your computer wireless adapter. without the wireless adapter you can not use the computer to connect to the wireless network. Now a days all the laptops and desktops are equipped with the built in wireless adapters.

WIN VISTA/ Windows 7
Click START ==> Control Panel ==> In the right hand side at the top you will see " Classic View "
Switch to classic view ==> you will see Device Manager ==> Under Network Adapters you will find your wireless adapter listed . Right clink on the wireless adapter ==> properties => Check whether it says the Device is working properly or not ? If it says working properly then that's great !

If you do not see wireless adapter in the Device manager , then either you do not have the adapter or the wireless adapter is not working .If you see "yellow exclamation mark" on the wireless adapter, that means the drivers are not installed for the adapter or not working. Reinstall the drivers.
Once your adapter is working properly , try to connect to the wireless network.

If you are installing the external wireless adapter to the computer and if you are using Windows 2000 or Windows 98 , ME, then you will have to connect to the wireless network using the utility of that adapter.
