Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WUSB54G Vista Is Not Working?
Sep 15, 2011
Ive been using my linksys wusb54g network adapter for a while. I have windows vista and until today it has been working fine. I reinstalled my OS because i had been having blue screen of death problems. Now that i've done this, i cant seem to get my adapter to work againIve seen a bunch of sites saying i need to install ralink rt2500usb or something, but the links for it never work as these pages are several years old.I cant figure this out. All i need to do is get my internet working and this adapter just doesnt work. Theres no support for vista i guess.

I just had to re-install an ancient version of windows XP Home edition on a crashed PC. I plugged in my WUSB54G v4 to the USB outlet, and the wizard came up to install the software. However, XP couldn't find any drivers for it, and I don't appear to have a CD with drivers on it. So, where on this site can I find them? When I go to the WUSB54G page, it just gives me manuals to dowload, but no software...

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?

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...

I have a Linksys WUSB54G version 4 adapter.My computer is running Windows XP, Service Pack 3, which is automatically updated at all times. I've been using the adapter for a year with no problems.
Suddenly, it's started loosing the connection to the Linksys router and locking up my computer so only a hard re-boot power-down will work.When it comes back up, some or all of my cookies are lost.
I've run several different security packages but no virus or other issues have been found.I've uninstalled the adapter and reinstalled it.Last time, following something I read on this site, I installed it without the Linksys software, just the drivers.

I have a WM600N wireless N dual band, I downloaded the drivers off linksys site for my vista 32/64 OS, the file is zipped, I copied it to cd from a different pc then the one it goes onto, and cannot run it, I also opened up the zipped file and copied its contents onto a cd and still couldn't get the pc to see them as drivers.Anyway, after I download the zipped file, which I have to do on a second pc in order to put on a second pc, how do I do that? What do I do with the zipped river file in order to get vista to see it and install it.

Where I can find a driver for:WMP54g v2 for Vista SP2 32bit It used to work just fine, until I recently reinstalled Vista (and installed all the updates) and now my internet connection is "limited." This means that it connects, but is extremely slow and the connection goes in and out.Here are some random notes about my problem:
Nothing is disabled, there are not any conflicts, and the problem remains even if I restore the OS back to restore point that I created right after reinstalling Vista (and before doing anything else).If I hook the computer directly up to my netgear router via cable, Windows Update will download and install a more recent version of said driver (no improvement).Other laptops in the house have no problems with the wifi. I have turned off both my cable modem and wifi router several times.The adapter does connect to the internet, and the signal strength is "excellent", but if drill down to the properties of the connection, it says that IPV4 is connected to the internet, but IPV6 is "limited." This then results in a very weak connection to the internet that goes in and out. I have tried unchecking IPV6 per some recommendations, but that did not work. I have tried resetting everything (winsock, etc) via command prompt. Firewall is off, no antivirus software

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.

Where are the Vista drivers for WUSB54GSC Hardware version 1?That shambles of a download page has either various XP, which doesn't work, or Vista drivers for hardware v3, which equally doesn't work.If you are really informing me, via a few hours of messing around installing and uninstalling useless drivers, there really is no Vista driver - for a network adapter manufactured in 2008.

I'm having problems getting the WUSB54G v2 adapter work with the WRT160N router (firmware 2.0.03). I'm running Vista Home Premium SP1. My wireless network is not detected by the WUSB54G and is not on the list of wireless networks I can connect to. I'm also having trouble connecting to WUSB54GP ver 4. The network is detected, but I can't connect.
Change the Beacon Interval to 75
Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304
Change the RTS Threshold to 2307
Now the WUSB54GP ver 4. is working perfectly, but the WUSB54G v2 still can't detect the network. I'm also running a PS3 and a laptop, which work perfectly with the WRT160N router.Also, the WUSB54G v2 system works just fine with my old router (WRTP54G).

I have had a (small) wireless network running in my house for several years but increasingly have the problem that one desktop which connects via a Linksys WUSB54G v4 wireless adapter will connect (associate) with the router but have no internet access. I have another desktop and 2 laptops that will all be connected with internet when the desktop with the Linksys adapter has no internet. The desktop in question is running Windows XP service pack 3. I read several Knowledgebase articles. One led me to run IPCONFIG/ALL where I can see the Autoconfiguration Enabled is set to Yes but the IP address is all 0's, while the DHCP and DNS Servers show 192.168.1.1. Another article suggested updating driver's, but it appears that the drivers have not been updated since 2005.

I have a Linksys WPC54GS Wireless adapter with Speedbooster (hardware version 1.1) & I lost my installation CD. I just installed a fresh copy of Windows XP Home Service Pack 1 and I am using a Dell Latitude C810 laptop. The card is the PCMCIA model. I cant get any assistane from Linksys because my warranty expired and I dont have the funds to buy a new card right now, so how I could get this one working again?

I've been using my AE1000 for about a month now with absolutely no problems. Yesterday it just stopped working, I removed it from the USB port and just about burned my fingers on the metal part that plugs into the USB port. BTW I am on Windows 7 64-bit.
Now it won't work. I've tried reinstalling the driver and the device just blinks in the "Devices and Printers" control panel. I removed it again and it was very hot to the touch after only being in the port for about a minute.

When I insert the disc for my new AE1000, the setup opens automatically and begins to run. Before even letting me read the software end user license agreement, I get a screen that says the following: "Our Customer Support team can assist.Your Linksys Adapter was not successfully set up."I can not figure out any way to keep this message from showing up.

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 got the D-Link router setup and with the network key. When i tried to type the network key in my pc(which has the adapter). it gave me an error.Network key password need to be 40 bits or 104 bit depend on network configuration. This can be 5 or 13 ascii characters or 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters". what does it mean? because the network key work with other pc..but not my pc with WMP 54G. reason?

Just got a new router. All of my devices connect fine to it except for the desktop that is using an external Linksys wireless adapter (WUSB54AG).The desktop is running Windows XP (Home Edition) SP3.The latest driver for the adapter has been installed (3.0.18.0).I am able to connect if security on the router is turned OFF.The router has 3 security options:
1) WPA-PSK (TKIP)
2) WPA2-PSK (AES)
3) WPA-PSk (TKIP) + WPA2-PSK (AES)
My understanding (from Linksys tech support) is that the device SHOULD be able to connect using WPA-PSK (TKIP). My Linksys Monitor indicates that the device is connected to the access point but not the internet (when I used WPA-PSK (TKIP). The IP address that is assigned is 169.254.3.129 and not the expected 192.168.1.x.When I turn security OFF on the router, the device can connect and I am assigned a "good" IP address (192.168.1.x).

I have 2 pc, one with windows xp SP3, and one with Ubuntu 10.04 Until 1 month ago on ubuntu it worked via a patch founded online, from 1 month on ubuntu it doesn't work anymore. Before I used a cable for xp and wireless for Ubuntu. Now I use cable for ubuntu and I try with key usb on windows xp sp3, but doesn't work, I see led, System says that connected, but If I do ping to a site via dos terminal it doesn't work. It doesn't work also if I use internet explorer to see google, but system says connected via linksys.
So I need to solve issue with windows xp, then I hope to solve also for Ubuntu.

My AE1000 has worked for about 2 weeks, but just stopped working. Have tried to reinstall but it won't recognize the adapter. I can't click the "next" button to continue the installation. I have chagned the USB ports and restarted the computer. But it still wont install. I have Windows Vista. I also have Norton, do I need to uninstall this?

I have a E2500 router and just got this AE3000 adapter. Thought that would bump up the wireless signal for using my laptop at the other end of the house about 75 feet from the router. The new E2500 Wireless N has been a big improvement. The AE3000 installed perfectly and shows up as working properly. It's just that the signal strength on my laptop shows 2 bars and the signal strength for the adapter shows 2 bars.

I've had the AE2500 adapter for a few weeks now, and it's worked fine up to this point. When I started up my computer today, however, it wouldn't connect to the network. I've uninstalled the software that came with the adapter and I've tried to reinstall it. However, when I got to the installation step to insert the adapter, the computer would not identify the AE2500. I've tried updating the drivers through the device manager, but I received an error stating that "a device attached to the system is not functioning".

I recently purchased the WET610N Wireless Bridge to use with my Samsung BD-P1590 Blu-Ray Player. The player has a few built in apps that include Netflix, Bockbuster, Pandora and YouTube. I successfully setup the bridge and hooked it up to the blu-ray player. It wasn't that hard. All the internet apps on the player work fine except Netflix. The first time I use the netfix app, it is supposed to give me a code that I use to register the device with netflix. However, I get a message that Netflix is temporarily unavailable. I have called netflix and they assure me that this is not the case and that it is most likely my wireless setup. The troubleshooting on Samsungs website points to the same thing. With that said, I disconnected the player from the wireless bridge and wired it directly to my router. Netflix works just fine then. Below is a list of things I have attempted:Disable the firewall on the router to see if it was blocking the app. (had the same results)Checked my firmware on all my devices (they are all current)Powered down all my devices and started them up back up starting with my DSL modem and ending with he blu-ray player (same results)Configured the bridge and player to use a static IP vs using the IPs automatically assigned by the router. (same results)Disabled aggregation on all WMM categories. I don't think the WRV54G router supports aggregation,, so I though this might cause a conflict with my setup. (same results)Enabled the broadcasting of SSID (same results)Chatted with linksys support. They basically checked to see if I had the latest firmware and that the bridge was working. They then recommended that I exchange the bridge for a new one. (I have not exchanged it for a new one yet, just because I am not convinced that there isn't something else wrong with my setup)My Configuration
DSL Modem --> WRV54G Linksys Wireless Router --> WET54G Wirelss Bredge --> Samsung BD-P1590 Blu-Ray Player
Router is broadcasting in Wireless G only on channel 1
Using WAP-PSK encryption
I am not sure if the problem lies with the routewr or the bridge. I am hoping someone out there can confirm that the WET610N truly does work whne using it with a BD-P1590 blu-ray player. This would lead me to believe that there is something wrong with my configuration or with using it combination with my older router. I would like to note also, that I have had one instance where BD Live didn't work. However, it has worked on other disks.

Though, the internet works fine when I plug it into the modem with a yellow cable.The other computers in the house work fine, so at first I thought it was perhaps a virus- like spyware or something. I've used Malwarebytes and no luck. I also thought it was a bit coincidental that it occured simultaneously on both computers and not on my parents or brothers'.I've also tried several other of the tricks I read up on the net..- Unclicking proxy.- Going into device manager and uninstalling/disabling wireless, then installing again- Unclicking Ip6.- system restore.I'm out of ideas and about to do a repair install on the xp computer.One last thing.. I did notice that when going into Network Map - Wireless Network Correction - it says the adapter is not connected?

So I bought a netgear wndr 3400 v2 wireless router.I can connect to the wifi with my phone, but not with my desktop (running vista home basic).I called my isp, and we went through all the physical set up and that was fine, but it still said unknown network....he said it was that vista was not recognizing my new router....Here is my ipconfig /all business

My Wireless network suddenly dropped out and now wont pick up any wireless devices.
When I go into Manage hardware it comes up saying that the Drivers are not installed for my network Controller. Searching does not find any to install and due to just relocating I cant find my original Disks that came with the laptop.
So I am reduced to sitting next to the router and being hard wired for the internet.

This PC I am on refuses to work with USB wireless adapters of any shape or size. I have currently tried using 3 Belkin USB wireless adapters, both for 802.11g and 802.11n. I know there is no issue with the USB adapters as I have tried these in a friends computer of EXACTLY the same version of Windows 7 (64 bit Professional). I have tried simple changes, such as switching off Anti Virus and Firewall settings. I have also tried updating drivers, going through setups multiple times, restarting my PC more times than I care to count.The problem I am now facing is that the USB Wireless Adapter seems to be installed, according to the Adapter List in Device Manager, which is showing no Yellow Triangles in any lists, all seems fine there. No connections can be found, and it cannot be the range, as I am currently sitting in a built up area housing multiple connections that can be found from the same spot as where my PC is.
I am currently using a Belkin USB Wireless Micro Adapter Surf N150 ( url...), and I know that the USB adapter aforementioned is in no state of malfunction, as having used it on different machine.Using a Gigabyte M68MT-S2 motherboard and have had not USB troubles until now. I have never tried configuring my PC for wireless setup previous due to always having been able to connect through a wired connection up until now.
