Belkin F56050 wireless adapter not working  

I have read through the prevous posts on the other belkin wireless adapters and followed those steps to try and get my wireless to work. i was not able to do so. So, like anyother person who gets frustated, i looked to buy a new one. The thing is i really dont want to. Right now to get on the internet i am using my Cell phone conected through a usb port. I bought win7 last night. i have looked high and low for a solid answer on a wireless usb that will work. First can anyone solve my problem? Or if not, pleaase tell me one that will work from Wal-mart!

Steps when i inst win7

Downloaded win
created a fresh start
HOWEVER i can still run XP and there is a folder with all of my old windows xp files
"windows.old"

sorry make that F5D6050

Belkin : Support : F5D6050 802.11b Wireless USB Network Adapter - Drivers.Just to be sure one more time.... i am re-DLing V2xxx. I have tired this step once before but i will give it another go. While I am waiting for this DL, is there and recommendations of a wireless usb? Im open to anything at this point so that i can get my phone back ):

It always helps to have your system specs filled in as well. this way others can see your hardware. Thanks. Fabe

okay filled the little bit that i know

okay for some odd reason, DLing V2xxx then telling it to be compatible with vista SP2, aloud win7 to recognise the Driver. However, i have ran into another problem. How do i get windows 7 to tell my wireless usb to search for local networks? I have never used vista so finding things on Win7 is new to me. I just want the wireless to find my network.

It is not there. That was my first guess was to check there and to scan for my network. I know my comp and win 7 sees it, it just will not let me find a network. Take a look at this

If you're connected to a hotspot or domain network, contact the network administrator. Otherwise: 1. Unplug or turn off the device. 2. After all the lights on the device are off, wait at least 10 seconds. 3. Turn the device on or plug it back into the power outlet. To restart a router or modem that has a built-in battery, press and quickly release the Reset button.
