Belkin Wireless G USB Network Adapter Driver Problems  

There are 5 versions of your USB Belkin 'G' stick

_50
_50A
_50B
_501H
_50E

So which is it exactly??

You will need to know this - then exactly match a driver up to the chipset that's inside!

Hi... this is AJ....
I found many people having problem in installing a belkin adaptor in windows 7..
Here is the fix..
Goto this stie belkin.com/support---> select Network adaptors..
amd download the drivers for ur adaptor depending upon the version...

Once it is downloaded.. Right click the setup file... go properties... select Compatibility
Leave a check mark on "Run in compatibility mode" and selesct Vista service pack 1 or 2.. click apply abd then ok...

Now double click the setup file.. run it...
Connect the adaptor and restart the machine..
Ur adaptor will be installed... :)



If u have any technical queries send a mail to visit4shankar@gmail.com

AJ,
Thanks for the tip. I followed your instruction while installing the Belkin USB Wireless Adapter Model F5D8053 v.3000 and worked. Before that, I had the same problem as described earlier in the threat.
Good day!

Hi Sir, can you please tell me exactly how you did it? im using win 7 32 bit and i selected vista sp2 for compatibility and apld then ok. after that i opened and start installing but everytime i connect the Beklin usb wireless adapter (F5D7050 Wireless G USB Network Adapter 3xxxx) the system tried to install the updates( but it really didnt install anything, waited for like 6 minutes...nothing happened) even though it is setup to manually install the driver everytime there is a new device inserted. then during installation it asked me to insert the usb wireless adapter but it always tells me that it is not inserted.
the usb shows on the network connections, but i can't enable it, since it's telling me that there is something wrong with the driver.

I have the same Belkin usb version as you and the same exact same problem. I've tried different compatabilities. It says disabled under network connections and then when I right click and click Enable a window pops up that says enabling... then enabled. The window closes but the adapter still says disabled. I've uninstalled my anti-virus software and ran in Safe Mode but it still doesn't work. Any more ideas?
