    Windows 7 on XPS 400


    I've just installed Windows 7 Ultra on my Dell XPS 400 system.
    Everything loaded and working fine except on Device Manager I noticed something.
    I'm missing a driver and it isn't available.
    It is listed under other devices and listed as USB Powerline Bridge.
    Does anyone know what this device is and how I can get a driver for this?

    Welcome!

    Powerline USB Bridge is a wireless adapter. Try updating your network adapter drivers.

    I'd tried that already.
    Still there.

    First, create a restore point. Then uninstall the network adapter drivers. Is it still there?

    I ran Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and it had this device listed as unknown.
    I'm not even sure what this is.
    Everythin else on this computer is compatible except this unknown device.

    Try uninstalling everything Linksys or Cisco.
