Hello,
Boy i should have done more research before buying win7!

I have been trying to get a wireless router and adapter (or just the adapter) that works with windows 7. So far i have tried a Belkin N+ and there was no joy; it was showing as enabled when it wasn't and then could not see the network.

I changed it to a netgear Dgnb2100 and win 7 does not recognise the adapter in the installer process! I found that out after putting the other pc's onto the network! Ouch. After speaking to netgear in india, they told me it was not compatible with win 7. That was £120 worth of new kit!

So can anyone recommend an adapter card, or fast router/ adapter combo, that WORKS with win 7. please for the love of all that is beautiful.

If i have repeated a thread i am sorry, i have been hunting for at least a year now!

I use a D-Link WUA 1340 USB Adapter and D-Link DGL 4300 Router both work fine with Windows 7 64 Bit
