NETGEAR WIRELESS APAPTOR

Post by geordie1 »

Hi forum,

I have just a netgear wireless router 54mpbs but the problem is my pc is not wireless enabled. Is there any sites were i can get a cheap netgear dongle of some sort from as ebay seems to be a bit dodgy at times it also needs to be vista compatable.

cheers.

Your operating system does not matter when going wireless.

I have two of these and they are very good.

Have you tried it in another USB port? and also tried something else that works into the USB port that is suspected of not working.
