Windows 7 no internt connection (desktop)

[emmittgator]

just bought a new desktop and it came with windows 7. I have another computer in the living room on windows xp. it is connected to a modem. and has a router connected.
bought a wireless usb adaptor (netgear wpn111) and downloaded drivers off website and couldnt get it to work. I then just connected my desktop straight to the router. but still no internet connection.
router works for laptops and such. Thought for sure it would work.
thx for help.

It would seem that one of us downloaded the wrong file since I don't see many matches in the actual file sizes.

theres a small selector box on that download page where you have to pick the exact windows 7 version as home , professional and ultimate and if its 32 or 64 bit ?

what version of windows are you running ?

right click computer\properties to find out

all the 64 bit versions are huge @ 164.8mb yet the 32 bit are a more reasonable 37.9
