USB Wifi driver won't install - 802.11n
I bought a (tiny) USB wifi dongle for my desktop PC, and have tried using the setup.exe file on the CD that came with it, and downloading a few drivers from the web (including Netcore SomethingOrOther and one in chinese) and none of them seem to install the driver.
It goes through the motions, asks for a restart of the computer, and once restarted there is no further activity or requests for me to do anything, and the driver isn't present. If I hover over the Realtek utility on the taskbar it says 'no RTL818x'.
The computer seems to register the dongle properly as when I first plugged it in it asked me to install the driver. The dongle itself has 802.11n stamped on it, but the packaging also says it's compatible with .11g and .11b - are these different drivers or is it all the same?
Any advice as to what I can try next?
