I need help badly, my wlan usb adapter can't connect to my router, but when I try it on XP (dual boot) it connects fine, it says it can't find network but in XP the signal strength is v. good. I'm using windows 7 professional 64-bit, i just installed it a day ago, i can connect thru wire. Taking the adapter off and plugging it back doesn't do anything.

This is the adapter: Link Removed

You might need to reset your router. Stick a paper clip into the little hole in the back. I had to do that to get a new laptop to connect once. You will probably have to delete the faulty connection in W7 and start over.

did windows install the driver or have you downloaded and installed the vista 64 driver ?
