[dits]

Can anyone tell me how to get the belking usb g adapter to work with the 64bit version of win 7. Can't get any of the belkin drivers to work ,tried compatibilty mode still doesn't work.

Are you sure it is a problem with the drivers?

I had a problem using WPA security at home with my wireless card until i ran windows update using the ethernet cable.

Admittedly, my card is different from yours, but the vista 64 drivers for most products tend to work fine on windows 7

tried both versions of the vista 64bit drivers from the belkin website. Both fail to install. So that the moment i got ethernet cable plugged in. I really don't won't to spend more money on getting a new wireless adapter.

Had a similar problem with the USB N dongle, and Belkinn support was useless. I got it working by updating the drivers to those for a USB wireless adapter from Abocom (sp) in the select driver list.

Install the driver in vista compatability mode that should work (works for my f5D750v5) the problem is actually that the installer is incompatible with win 7 rather than the actual driver

Got it working used vista service pack 2 compatability mode. Thanks very much.

Spent hours on this problem. I have the F5D7000 v3 and none of the 'install drivers in compatibility mode' solutions worked.

This card actually uses the Ralink RT2500 chipset, and Ralink provide Windows 7 drivers for this chipset (both 32- and 64-bit).

Go to their site (www.ralinktech.com) and click on the Software section. Download the drivers for PCI/mPCI/CB (RT2500) and install them. When I did this the link was verrry slow (8Kb/s), but be patient and it will get there.

Once the drivers are installed, go into Device Manager and select the card. Click 'update driver' and select from a list of devices. There will now be a section called "Ralink Inc." or something. In there there will be an option for the RT2500 card. Select this and it installs and runs perfectly.

Hope this helps someone.
