Errors During Installation

The Computer Does Not Detect FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick

The computer does not automatically detect the FRITZ!WLAN
USB Stick when it is inserted. The device driver installation
does not start.

The FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick is not inserted correctly into the USB
port or the chip set drivers of the computer are out of date.

Remove the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick from your computer and
then insert it again into a USB port of the computer. Install
the latest chip set drivers. See the documentation for your
mainboard to find out which drivers your computer requires.
The latest chip set drivers are available at:

www.viaarena.com
