Windows 7: Compact Wireless-G USB Adapter

Hemulen · 12 Nov 2009

Hello!

I have this USB wireless stick so I can connect to wireless Internet.

I have a problem, though with this stick.

It automatically disconnects and I have to restart my computer to let it work again.
Wireless-G USB Compact USB Network Adapter (WUSB54GC) (Not click-able)

Could someone please help me to fix this problem as it's getting pretty annoying.

You can try updating the firmware and driver by visiting here.

If you're connecting to a router that isn't so close or you are not getting a great signal, that could be the cause instead.

I tried those, but I don't know if I have v. 1 or v3 as its not listed on my adapter.

Tried both, and still no luck. The v. 3 installer gives me an error, and v.1 just doesn't work.

Hey,

i have 2 of those and silly as it may seem but you need to get a win update so they will work. i always plug in wired and then do the update. then they work fine.

Could you explain any further?

Windows Update? Could you give me a link?

Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry, torrentg, but the link you provided did not fix my problem.

My brain must not have been functioning too well when dealing with this thread for you, previously.

Here's how to fix it:

Go into the router's config page for DHCP. Set the lease timeout period to the maximum allowed. Reboot your computer and the router, after.
