My airlink wireless usb adapter doesnt work anymore, what can be the problem? it used to work before, but when i restart my pc it doesnt work anymore, ive restored to anotehr day and it started working but then when i restart it stops.... now even if i restore it still doesnt work, ive installed the new driver for it also... its detected under device manager but if i try to update driver or if i try to uninstall/disable it just freezes, im running on windows xp 64 bit... the light on the wireless doesnt light up either.

Which version and kernel of Linux are you running? That does make a difference. Post back with more info, please.

There is a great article at Working with Windows Wireless Networks
If you need more help post back! Thumbs and testimonial are welcome!

Hey!
It seems like the driver/software of the adapter got corrupted, or that the adapter itself is corrupted/mulfunctioning!
First, unplug the adapter; completely uninstall, restart then reinstall the software; then plug it in again, preferably using a different USB port.

If it still doesn't work, replace the adapter!

Best regards,
Pelu.

post your pc specs or make and model.
also whats your os?

if its an unfixable problem then i would go and buy a usb wireless adapter.

Make sure you have the most up to date drivers for both your mini usb adapter and your router.

The 64 bit version of windows 7 may not have the right driver for your equipment.

Will get better with time.

Good luck.

Did you type in the wep key and confirm it?It will not work is you type it in once only.

problem resolved. thank you.

The AWL number was what I was looking for, thanx.
If the AirLink utility is running, there is where you would check the status. The way to set it so that the connection shows in the 'network connections '
Go into your Control Panel, then go into Network Connections
Right click on your AirLink wireless adapter and click “Properties”
Click on the “Wireless Networks” tab
Put a check in the box next to “Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings”
Click “OK”

If you wish to go back to using the AirLink101 802.11g Cardbus Utility, go back into the “Wireless Networks” tab in your AirLink adapter’s properties and remove the check mark next to “Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings”

Hi.

This method will hard reset the wireless drivers back to default settings.
What i want you to do is right click "computer" select "manage" and then "device manager", a list will populate, then click on the + sign next to "network adapters" and right click on the wireless adapter and "un-install" the device, reboot the PC and wait for windows to detect the wireless card and install the drivers for it, this will appear in the system tray (bottom right hand side) when its done try to connect again.


Good luck
