Wireless Zero Configuration
      #365563 - Mon Sep 17 2007 02:15 PM

Please help...
I had to restore a computer over the weekend back to factory default. All went well until i tried to reconnect the wireless broadband. This is not the main computer and therefore has a Belkin Adapter. Cannot find any software for this, and have been told none came with it....(dont think thats right)
Anyway been looking around the net for help and have come across "wireless zero configuration", but not sure what this is? Can I use this instead of an adapter??

Sorry, Wireless is not my thing....
thanks for any advice. (running XP)

Anything wireless will have a driver. This is the Belkin support page. You should be able to search for the right driver to get the thing working. Just get the model number from the device itself and it should be set up within minutes

Any troubles, post back.

But you're accessing the internet somehow. Download it to the computer you are using now and transfer it using a USB memory stick or a CD.

OK OK I can't go any faster! aaaaaaaaaaaagh!

Thanks. Didn't think of that.

It was for my brother's computer and he went and bought a new USB Adapter. It all went on with no problem.

Thanks again for your advice. This is the first time I had posted and if I have any further problems, will definatly come back. Cheers!
