Linksys Wireless Adapters :: AE1200 Not Detected By Setup Program On Windows 7
Mar 22, 2012
I have an HP G60-530US laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I bought a Linksys AE1200 USB Wireless Network Adapter because the laptop stopped recognizing the internal wireless adapter. However, when I use the CD that came with the Linksys adapter to install it, the adapter is not detected. I have tried different USB ports and also power-cycling the router & cable modem & rebooting. Nothing seems to work. I also ran the Setup program on my Gateway DX4860 desktop but the Linksys AE1200 is not detected on the desktop, either.
I've got a bit of an issue. A friend of mine has recently gotten windows 7 installed into his desktop. When he tried to install the network adapter (wusb11 version 2.8), it installed. However, when we searched for it in the device manager, it did not appear. does Version 2.8 only cover up to Windows XP or is there software to make it work for Windows 7?
Like I said my AE1200 adapter keeps disconnecting, it happens about twice a day, underload especially.I already tried to update drivers, reinstall drivers, tweak settings, nothing works, I even turned off power save mode.I'm running WIndows 7 64-bit
So as the topic says, my AE1200 wireless adapter continually disconnects. It will do it periodically throughout regular use. There are times, however, when it will definitely disconnect without fail. Whenever I try to play any online game (ranging from browser games on Facebook to games installed on my machine like Guild Wars), it disconnects. Any time it disconnects, it's a simple matter of either unplugging or plugging it back in. However, this makes it impossible to use anything that requires a constant internet connection (such as the aforementioned online games). It also disconnects whenever I do any task that requires a lot of processing power, such as rendering a video in Adobe Premiere Pro.
I am trying to install the Ae1200 on my notebook (windowsXP), which doesn't have a cd drive. I downloaded the driver from cisco page, and also copied setup disc from a 2nd comp onto a usb drive. Using both options, the wizards starts correctly, but then ends with error message saying "cannot find specified file"
I have the model AE1200 usb adapter and its been working great for over 6 months, but lately it has been inconsistently working. It has stopped working then i have to reset the adapter and then it will work for a little bit and then it will do it again. is this a common problem or is it likely my adapter is failing? Is there an update that i am missing?
I've been searching on linksys's website and was unable to locate the driver for AE1200 (Vista). They still sell the product in their online store, however the support seems to be removed. Where I can locate this? I reinstalled VISTA and require the drivers to have wireless/internet access.
My Compaq Presario V3015's Internal Wireless Adapter has died so I recently bought an Linksys Expresscard WEC600N to replace it. After installing the software (The Linksys monitor) everything on the program is grayed out except for "exit" which closes the program. After looking at device manager, the adapter isn't even listed their. For some reason, even when just plugging the adapter in after an uninstallation of the software and a restart of the computer, the device never gets detected even when it is clearly on (two blue lights for Power and Link/act). I've tried switching to Windows Wireless Zero connection but under network adapters, it doesn't even show a wireless option, just an LAN one. I'm pretty sure its not so much a hardware issue as it is a software one. Everything works fine except for anything related to wireless capabilities on this laptop.
The "Wireless Network Monitor" for my Linksys Dual-Band Wireless A+G Notebook Adapter Model No WPC55AG has been unable to run after I last updated my Windows XP machine using Windows Update. The problem presents itself immediately upon login (because the monitor is set to run on startup) with an error window that says "Abnormal program termination" and "WPC55AGV2.exe" in the title bar. I suspect the problem occurred because one of the new updates included an upgrade to the Microsoft .NET Framework Services 3.0.
I recently upgraded my computer (not laptop) from Windows XP to Windows 7-32 bit. I redownloaded and installed Network Magic, Linksys Wireless Manager and my WUSB600N adapter properly (I hope). Now everything was working fine, I was able to get onto my network through the adapter but today I noticed that the Linksys Wireless Manager seemed to not connect to my network, instead my computer some how did it without the wireless manager. Now when I tried to connect to a network through the Wireless Manager it said Error: 211 and said My Adapter may not be installed properly and told me to remove the adapter and attach it back after 20 seconds. I tried that but again my computer connected to the network STILL through the computers own manager not through the Linksys Wireless Manager. That was still saying Error 211. So the problem really is that the Linksys Wireless Manager wont detect my adapter but my computer is still able to detect it and connect to my network.
Trying to set up EA2600 Wireless Router. I follow instructions exactly re connecting cable modem to router. Setup program then searches for network, but at 25% completion it says it can't find the router.I've reset the router via button on bottom and retried setup procedure multiple times without success.
I'm at a new apt and I can't get Online with vista to download the driver so I've been trying to download it on a droid or iPhone and transfer the file any know any way to do this besides finding a cd? Can I make a cd at a friends house by downloading the driver online? Where can I get the driver?
I downloaded the drivers for the WMP54GS and I found the file "ikernel.ex_" is compressed in a format for CAB file extraction and decompression methods. It therefore cause the installation and Setup of Linksys drivers to fail because setup cannot decompress "ikernel.ex_". It was not compressed with Winzip's self extractor utility originally in the download package. The file was compressed in a Microsoft specific compression method for CAB archives, and surprisingly still an old DOS based compression method.
Linksys/CISCO has deliberately tampered with the download installers in an effort to force users to pay for out of warranty installation support. I might be further surprised that manual installation methods via device manager or update driver haven't been deleted from support pages forcing even more telephone calls to tech support.
ok my laptop dell XPS got virus and crashed...i cleaned it up and re installed window 7.Now my wireless 825 program is gone...i tried to install CD dlink 825 and it kept say retry.
I am having problems installing this with the cd that was given, so I went on the site to DL the drivers, i downloaded the zip file, but when i open it there is no setup.exe. Do i need to exract the contents to a certain file?
We've been getting broadband through a WRT54G v2.2 router into numerous computers with WUSB54G v4 wireless adapters into winXP PC's for years now, but I've recently got a 64bit Win7 PC which needs internet connection. I spent all day today trying to find drivers, workarounds and god knows what for the WUSB54G v4 which (I'm pretty sure now ) don't exist for a 64bit system.
How do I get internet into this Windows 7 PC? Will I just need to get a new adapter? (and will it be compatible with the current router?) I don't especially want to get a new router and several new adapters just because we have one new Win7 PC... If I do just need to get a new adapter, in terms of performance/compatibility?
Oh, and how ancient is the hardware we actually have, and does/will it effect the internet in any way?
Just picked up a WEC600N Wireless N Express Card and installed. It's working, but it's connected at 54mb and I cannot find out how to configure the wireless settings. I think I am using the Intel Proset wireless software.
I installed Windows 7 Ultimate on my computer, and I cannot get my Linksys to work on it, the light doesn't light but it shows up in device manager. I've tried using Vista 32-bit drivers but it doesn't work at all, I am thinking it isn't a driver issue at all because it shows that the driver is up to date.
I have tried to install a usb network adapter wusb100 ver.2 under win7 x64 and win7 x64 sp1(two different machines). I have installed and downloaded the latest drivers ( Driver11/09/2009 Ver.3.0.3.0 (64-bit)). Device manager reports everything is fine, but i can't find the adapter anywhere in the Network and Sharing Center on both machines, not even if i run ipconfig it won't show up. As a result of course there is no wireless connection available. Although adapter has worked fine when tested under win7 x32. But win7 x32 is not my case.
I've noticed that my WUSB54GSC is completely unsupported by Windows 7, nor has Linksys published any new drivers. From browsing these forums and the internet, many other Linksys users are experiencing much trouble with getting their wireless adapters to work with Windows 7.So please, Cisco, publish new Windows 7 drivers... I'm completely taken back that there is nothing to do with Windows 7 anywhere on your site, and disappointed at none of your products being ready for the new Operating System. Im stuck with a useless router. I've tried for hours and hours to try random fixes i found on the internet, force install drivers preloaded on Windows 7, and force install the out of date Linksys drivers....to no avail. I still need to activate my Windows 7 online, and i can't activate it if my wireless adapter doesn't work. I will keep this in mind when i purchase routers/adapters in the future. I've already tried using the ra-link drivers to get my adapter working, but every time i get a "code 10" error stating that "This device cannot start". Any driver that i do install from Windows 7 pre loaded drivers ends up giving me that error. And all the out-of-date linksys drivers don't even successfully install the drivers...
