How to Install

1. Check your Windows version. Before downloading, confirm whether your computer runs Windows 11, 10, 8, or 7, and whether it uses a 32-bit or 64-bit system. This is an older adapter, so verify that the specific driver package supports your Windows version; compatibility with newer releases should not be assumed.

5. Restart and test the connection. Restart if prompted, then select your Wi-Fi network and enter its password. If the adapter remains unavailable, check its Device Manager status and confirm the driver matches both the hardware and your Windows installation.
