How to get a USB 2.0 wireless adapter to work on Win7 Ultimate 64-bit?

Details:

ASUS P8Z77 - V motherboard w/Intel Core i7 3.5 Ghz 3770 K LK
16 GB OF RAM
HWUN4 USB 2.0 wireless adapter b/g/n w/Realtek chipset Hawking RTL8192CU
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit fully updated to include SP1
It is the second USB card who refuses to work on this platform, the first being something Rosewill which also uses a Realtek chip.
I checked that the drivers for my MB are up-to-date, verified that I have later Hawking, tried drivers directly from Realtek drivers for the chip and assured that I installed the latest Intel MEI driver package for my motherboard. I went on the USB settings in the BIOS, but I'm not exactly fluent in what the options really are or do. I went through all of this also try to get the Rosewill unit to work several months past, as well, but without success with a device. It is postulated that the Hawking unit is actually Edimax, although I can't find any similar product on the site in order to try the drivers for. I also completely turned off my firewall ZoneAlarm and Avast! antivirus during installation and configuration, for the same results each time. The results does not same are achieved regardless of USB 2.0 ports 10 or if I connect to the adapter for.
With this Hawking and the previous Rosewill adapter, drivers seem to installs successfully, such properties as displayed in the Device Manager say "this device is working properly", but they do not find a wireless signal. Simply says Windows Network Diagnostics adapter is "problems" and suggests that drivers can be a problem and always indicates that the latest drivers are already installed every time I have send the update to the latest drivers on my hard drive.
I can come to only three possible conclusions:
(1) Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit is unable to use USB 2.0 wireless network cards.
(2) Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit is unable to use USB adapters based on the Realtek chips.
(3) my motherboard lacks the correct BIOS settings to fully activate USB wireless.
I have several other USB 2.0 devices that all work fine on this platform, including cameras, USB keys, external drive docks, mice, keyboards, phones, and others. I googled the days and found nothing to convince me the problem with my motherboard, I can't find anything specific on Win7x64 being a problem with this. Comments on NewEgg and other sites indicate people successfully use wireless adapters USB with Win7x64 and even on the same motherboard, I use, so I have to assume that I have either overlooked something or not yet found appropriate hardware and/or software settings.
With this post being half-rant and half-cry for help, I will respectfully ask for suggestions on how to solve this maddening problem.

«I don't mention it in my first post, certainly, but these devices have very certainly works wonders on a laptop with Win7x64 and a desktop computer with WinXPx32 installed.»

So your previous conclusions are wrong, because they contradict what you are saying now.

I can come to only three possible conclusions:
(1) Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit is unable to use USB 2.0 wireless network cards.
(2) Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit is unable to use USB adapters based on the Realtek chips.
(3) my motherboard lacks the correct BIOS settings to fully activate USB wireless.
 
I wanted to know if the adapter STILL works, not its past history. I have a D-Link WDA 2320 worked in another PC perhaps a year previously, but now it shows in the configuration, and that's as much as I can get with it. A few years ago I had a computer that did not like any wireless device, either PCI or USB and finished by hard wiring it which was very annoying.
 
OK, back to your...
 
Go to Device Manager and uninstall the device.
Then set Device Manager to show hidden devices.
Remove any instances where the adapter has tried to implement on a USB port
Remove all instances of the downloaded driver files.
Restart the computer. There should be nothing about it that the adapter can use more
 
Then download a SINGLE instance of the pilots approved here. http://hawkingtech.com/products/hawking_products/Hi-gain_wireless_networking/HWUN4.html
 
According to the manual, you must run the file from the driver before connecting the device to the computer...
Connect the device and then run the driver file. Restarting after the installation of the drivers and when the computer is back running, connect the device...

  • Re: Unable to get the wireless adapter to work on my Satellite L550-1CC

    I'm getting bored with this laptop, I reinstalled windows 7 (32 bit) and can not get the wireless adapter to work.

    My router settings are perfect, my netbook is zero connection problems - the router is just inches away from the laptop most of the time - the laptop insists that there is "no available networks."

    This of course is BS, before I reinstalled windows I could pick up 3 other neighbouring networks as well as mine.

    Windows automatically installed the wireless network - I thought that could be the problem, so I downloaded the realtek driver directly.

    No difference. Always the small icon with Red Cross barred through it.

    I thought it could have been a hot key problem - so I installed the flash card driver that apparently controls the access keys (for some reason any).

    Shortcut keys still don't work - I could really care about that - it's just the wireless network I need.

    Thanks for any help I receive.

    > my netbook has zero connection problems - the router is just inches away from the laptop most of the time - yet the laptop insists there is "no available networks."
    After reading this sentence, I'm a bit confused. If there is no available WLAN networks how your laptop had zero problems to connect?

    One last thing:
    > Of course is BS, before I reinstalled windows I could pick up 3 other neighbouring networks as well as mine.
    What is the difference between the old and the new installation of Windows?

    In general the WLAN use is fairly simple.
    Wireless network card - must be installed correctly (listed in Device Manager
    WLAN card - must be enabled using FN + F8 key combination to activate the wireless network card
    -scan the available WLAN networks area, click on the button of your WLAN and use connect
    -put key WLAN if necessary and after a few seconds WLAN connection will work

    I did this many times on laptops preinstalled Win7 and didn't have any problems. On all laptop computers pre-installed with Toshiba recovery image (factory settings) is not necessary to change the WLAN settings.

  • X 61: wireless adapter stopped working at home, work at the office...

    It's the strangest thing. Last night my (Intel Pro Wireless 3945ABG) wireless adapter stopped working at home - I can view all the networks and try to connect but it won't just end connections to one of the networks I could use in the past (my own password protected network or those open).

    Curiously, he does not work in my office, connect to our society, protected wireless network password.

    I tried to uninstall the drivers as well as access to the connections and install the latest drivers - but in vain.

    Help, please!

    Moderator Note: type added to the subject line.

    I don't know if it was AC 5.2 or not (because I just realized that the networks in question were not accessible on my iPhone either) - so I reset my router again and now everything is good.

    Hi kimhyun,

    I tried this. But managed. I used the USB as my sugesstion to device.my USB is that you unplug your device at any point of your work. Check that the device is properly connected. IF your system has recognized your device, you can view the device in Control Panel > Device Manager > then open your particular device from the list of the connected device then details > description of the system > hardware ID > then you can find here the code from your provider.

    Try this. I think that your device is connected to loosen. What USB device you are using? Also, you must install THE DRIVER FOR YOUR USB DEVICE.

    Good luck

    Is it possible that the mini-PCI card does not work?

    You are the very welcome, John.

    If she is not there, then it might actually be one of these possibilities...

    1. maybe you can install the HP Wireless Assistant and see if it shows your card in the program, and he just needs to be turned on with the software button.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/WC/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-55203-1&CC=US&DLC=en&LC=en&os=2093&Product=3686683&sw_lang=

    2. the card is completely faulty and is not seeing the same as installed.

    3. your PC has the same features (nvidia graphics and chipset) as the dv6000/dv9000 notebooks.  He had problems with motherboard dv6000/dv9000 series with this material. Among several things that could go wrong has been done on the motherboard mini-PCIe slot.

    You can search eBay by part number, and you should be able to pick up a replacement used but tested and functional real cheap.

    You can get a map with this specific part number or it will not work.

    Here is a link to several listed on eBay - as low as $4,00

    http://www.eBay.com/Sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_nkw=441090-001&RT=NC&LH_BIN=1

    If the replacement of the card works, then you have solved the problem at a great price. If it isn't then you know the motherboard is bad and not worth fixing and you either continue as you are now, with an external WLAN adapter, or spring for a different laptop.

  • Having trouble getting a Dlink DWL-G820 wireless bridge to work with wrt610n

    I'm trying to get a few dlink wireless bridges to work with wrt610n, but not having a chance.  I left Wrt610n router with the IP default '192.168.1.1' and configured accordingly bridges with addresses "192.168.1.xxx".

    Wireless bridges is not happy.  Any ideas?  Bridges have been working well when I was with the IPS "192.168.0.xxx" with wrt610n

    Sorry guys, the problem was the security setting wireless that I used on the WRT610N, not the addressing system.

  • Impossible to activate the USB Belkin, f5d8055 wireless adapter in Windows 7

    I have an old Dell Laptop Inspiron 6400 PC I installed Windows 7 Ultimate on. The built-in wireless adapter works well, but I would like to use an external Belkin F5D8055 N + USB adapter for inclease & range performance.
    So far, I installed the drivers for the correct adapter on the Belkin site and they seem to install correctly. The adapter is recognized and no error display in Device Manager.
    If I disable or uninstall the integrated Dell wireless adapter and try and turn on the Belkin adapter, while the message displayed indicates that it allows, the adapter is disabled and grayed out. I even turned off the Dell Wireless card in the bios that actually no difference.
    I know that the adapter Belkin F5D8055 working as I tried to install it in another laptop (Lenovo) and it works OK.
    My question is what could be causing the adapter Belkin to stay disabled? Is this something that is that collide with the Belkin drivers?
    I find a second laptop Dell Inspiron 6400 with the same generation and has the same symptoms with the Belkin adapter.
    I also tried a former C and W USB wireless adapter and it also will not help.
    Is there a fundamental issue with computers Dell laptop, Inspiron and Windows 7?

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you very much

    Hi Zach, you are quite correct! I have now uninstalled Zonealarm and the Belkin adapter install and activate OK. Thank you very much.

    Do you know if Zonealarm can be configured to work with the Belkin adapter, or is it one or the other?

    Thanks again.

    Unfortunately, it's going to be one or the other, try to reinstall.

  • problem to get internet with SIM card on the probook 6550 b win7 pro 64-bit

    Hello.

    I'm trying to connect to the internet with a SIM card on my Probook 6550 b with win 7 Pro - 64 bit

    I tried an external USB (called Globesurfer icon) device that works on computers running XP, but I can't make it work on mine.

    I tried to put the SIM card directly into the location corresponding to the battery. Nothing happens when I start the computer, and there is only two options in the wizard wireless (WLAN and Bluetooth)

    I tried to download and install a file (called sp53068) on the HP support site which was supposed to install the drivers for internet cell phone. It is a DOS window, and he said a sentence. Then it just closes.
    I also tried to install all the application files that extracts of the sp53068 in c:\swsetup\SP53068, but they have the habit of work.

    Please help me with this problem. Right now this is my only option to connect to the internet from my laptop.

    In advance, thank you for any help.

    Hello. I just wanted to say that the "mystery" is solved. Simply the USB device doesn't work because it only supports cooperative systems up to Win7 32 bit and no further details. I have 64-bit, so it's a 'no-go '. Thanks for you time.

  • Enabling/disabling wireless adapter without administrator rights (Win 7 64 - bit)

    Is there a way to toggle wireless adapter without it as an administrator? Our political laptops where user access is limited and admin password is required to install all the software are submitted. Since the enabling/disabling wireless adapter requires Admin rights, users by default are not able to turn on/off wireless. However, our IT Department has confirmed that their policy has nothing to do with the wireless adapter and it's a setting in Win 7. Is there a solution to this? Thank you.

    There is no control of Windows 7 that will allow a user account Standard toggle the WiFi card.

    A Standard user account is limited to the secondary action of switching on & off WiFi using the F7 / Fn + F5 key or the key it is for the model [a switch is often provided in the dialog box Windows-X as well, "Windows Mobility Center" key].
