D Link Wireless Adapter does not work with Windows 7

I looked in the Windows Compatibility Center and it says my D-Link WUA-2340 wireless adapter is compatible with Windows 7. Our newest computer can see my wireless network, but does not connect. Worked fine with Vista. Then it is compatible or not? I downloaded the latest drivers from the D-Link's Web site, this version is one year old. Support D-link told me that it is not compatible with Win 7. They say that it is not. MS says it's. It does not connect. Anyone know what is happening? I do not have to buy a new adapter.

Hi Mike,.

Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

D Link WUA-2340 is compatible with Windows 7, but you will need to download the software of your product from the link below. Select the appropriate Version of the operating system before you download.

You can also try to change the settings of the firewall at various levels and check if that helps.

  1. Open Windows Firewall click on the Start button and then click Control Panel.
  2. In the search box, type firewall, and then click Windows Firewall.

For more details on the settings of the firewall, follow the link

  • D Link DWA 140 Wireless Stick does not work with Windows 7 Pro x 64

    After searching the Internet for most of the day, I am naïve. Installed Win 7 Pro x 64 (from MSDN-AA) today and I wanted to use my job well DWA 140 to connect to my router for internet. The Board in use is the Asus P5p77-M. All, who tried with 2 different USB stick work USB ports in question. Windows is up to date, as it's the Bios and Chipset drivers, on the site of Asus's latest versions are installed. The DWA-140 appears up like works well in my device manager, but what is it. When you install the software from the site Web of D-Link, the connection software shows no WiFi at all, and the same thing happens if I chose to install the drivers Ralink (manufacturer of the chip inside the DWA-140). All the ideas here what to do?

    Carsten

    What happened when you tried the Windows software?

    He was able to detect the card?

    Looks like a program prevents the identification of the card.

    I would like to start with a clean boot to make sure that a startup program is not causing the problem:

  • HP 15-f039wm: Re: qualcomm-atheros wifi adapter does not work with windows 8

    Hello HP support.

    I have a HP 15-f039wm, product J8X12UA #ABA, running Windows 8.1.  I like it, but I thought I could improve it by upgrading to 8 GB, installation of a 240 GB SSD and move the 500 GB HARD disk to an external USB adapter.  So far, so good, so very jolly good.

    I also wanted to upgrade the Wi - Fi adapter to a faster power adapter with Bluetooth 4.0, but instead to get the AC7260 from Intel, I settled for a Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 with the Bluetooth BT3012 device, which belongs to a HP, I think.

    I shouldn't have paid.  Too late, I learned that the Atheros AR9485 has major compatibility problems.  Microsoft compatibility survey shows that some 530 speakers, 357 note as incompatible AR9485.

    This pair Bluetooth adapter and connects with my cell phone, but it remains connected for less than a minute before it disconnects.  It does not connect with something else I have.  It does not recognize my Bluetooth phone earpiece, and he recognizes that rarely my Bluetooth keyboard, with which it will pair but it never connects.

    The keyboard is a deal breaker - a must - have - and something really nice.  I tried the same Bluetooth keyboard sold by comb and Arteck jelly and a similar one by the EC technology, which has the top two rows of keys merged into one.  They connect immediately with an IPhone 4, but none of the three would be in contact with the BT3012 in my HP 15 - f039wm.

    Microsoft recommends the most recent drivers as a fix for incompatibility issues.  I downloaded the NIC drivers and card with Bluetooth Bluetooth drivers for the AR9485/BT3012 of http://www.station-drivers.com .  That updated the Qualcomm Bluetooth driver version 8.0.1.273, date from mid-2013, that came with the BT3012 (AR9485) Microsoft version of the driver 8.0.1.344 card, day 23/04/15.  Even still, it connects to my cell phone but nothing else.

    "Allow Windows to turn off this device to save power" is not checked for the adapter.  I also ran the 'netsh' command to clear the TCP/IP stack and reset the Winsock Catalog.  I have no intend to restore Windows to the factory; before that I would, I would get the Intel AC7260 more expensive card - that I probably do anyway, given the record of the incompatibility of the Qualcomm Atheros AR9485/BT3012.  I do not expect to change this folder, no matter what I do.

    But I'm open to suggestions.

    Thank you in advance for taking the time to investigate this problem.

    Hi @gospelmidi,

    Thank you for your inquiry.

    I take that you have swapped the hard drive and replaced the original card wireless and Bluetooth with the Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 with the Bluetooth BT3012 device and cannot associate with something other than your cell phone.  You tried to reset the TCP/IP stack, but there was no change.

    Did you run HP Support Assistant to ensure you have all the updates from HP?

    Have you tried to run the troubleshooter in Windows?

    Alternatively, you can try the following steps.

    Step 1. Go to Device Manager
    Step 2. Right click on "Bluetooth device" you want
    Step 3. Select "update driver software... »
    Step 4. Choose "Browse my computer for driver software".
    Step 5. Choose "Let Me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer.
    Step 6. Select "Ports (COM & LPT)"
    Step 7. Select "Microsoft" to the list of "manufacturers".
    Step 8. Finally select "Standard series via a Bluetooth connection.

    If you are unable to connect to a Bluetooth device, try the following:

    Step 1. Search for 'Change device' in the start menu in Windows 8.
    Step 2. Click on where it says change device installation settings.
    Step 3. Select No, let me choose what to do option.
    Step 4. Check the automatically get the device app option
    Step 5. Click on save changes to save the settings that you select

    So, you can try this

    Step 1: Go to RUN (Windows Logo + R) and type "services.msc" and Enter
    Step 2: Now find 'Bluetooth Support Service' and double click it
    Step 3: Now click on the Log on tab and type "Local Service" without the quotes
    Step 4. Click on "account".
    Step 5: Now remove any authorization of passwords the password field blank
    Step 6: Below the upper left title should be a hyperlink 'Start' click

    If the problem here is a link to HP 15 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service of Guide for your laptop.  Please note Chapter 3, page 17, section 17 for recommended replacement cards.

  • HP dv6-6c10us: HP dv6-6c10us Broadcom 802.11n wireless adapter does not work after windows 10 installed

    I have a laptop HP dv6-6c10us with a Broadcom 802.11n wireless adapter.  It worked fine on Win 7.  When I upgraded to win 10, it has stopped working.  The driver has not been updated since 06/02/13.

    Until the driver is updated by Broadcom or HP, this computer is now a desktop computer.

    Any suggestions on how to get the adapter wireless on Windows 10?

    I recommend you to go back and do a system restore to a point before started to install the automatic updates, and where worked the wireless.

    Then download this tool that stops updates to install automatically.

    https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/3073930

    Hide all of them and then install one by one until you find the one that is to destroy the wireless connection.

    When you have found the culprit just hide it again and it will not be installed.

    You can create a system restore point each time you install an update.

    Tedious, but you should get where you want to be.

  • Satellite Pro L40 - wireless adapter does not work - Vista

    I recently had some problems with my laptop.
    A couple of weeks, I put in a disc of OpenSuse.
    It's not stable anything, but locked me out of my original Vista operating system.

    I reinstallled Vista Home Basic, but there are a few problems.
    Mainly, my wireless adapter does not work.

    When I flip the button to turn it on nothing happens and it is not recognized in Windows.
    I installed Atheros Driver, but still nothing happens, light is not yet.

    Any advice?

    Hello

    First check the device-> network adapters area manager
    You see the WLan card? Or the unknown device appears?

    If there is an unknown device, then the WLan driver has not been installed correctly or you tried to install a driver badly these two options are possible.

    Remember that your wireless network card? Maybe it was a Realtek WLan card?

    If it's a Realtek WLan card, try the WLan driver from the Realtek website and look for 802.11 g (RTL8187B) chip or you will simply check the page of the European driver Toshiba too the Realtek WLan driver also appeared on the Toshiba page
