Hmm. You shouldnt HAVE to install the actual netgear software for the adapter.

It's like that, cause it's netgear.

not if you get the zip of, or extract the driver from the exe.

yea winrar is awesome for extracting the contents from exe's :P
Pretty sure you can download a zip archive from their site with the raw files as well.

There's several peices of information in a couple of other threads, which are leading me towards the conclusion that W7 doesn't auto-configure SVCHOST.exe as a network interface correctly.

Thus when you installed + Ran the netgear software, you override SVCHOST.exe in some aspects, causing the buggy procedures never to be called.

Still, if you're interested check the thread https://www.sevenforums.com/network-i...tion-drop.html
