USB Adapter Installation Problems
If your computer cannot find the EZ Connect Wireless USB
Adapter or the network driver does not install correctly, check the
following items:
•
Make sure the adapter is connected to the USB port. Check for
any hardware problems, such as physical damage to the
adapter’s connector.
•
Try the adapter in another USB port. If this also fails, try using
another SMC2662W wireless adapter that is known to operate
correctly.
•
Make sure your computer is using the latest BIOS.
•
If there are other network adapters in the computer, they may
cause conflicts. Disable or remove all other adapters from the
computer and test the wireless adapter separately.
•
Check for a defective computer or USB port by trying the
adapter in another computer that is known to operate correctly.
•
If there are still difficulties, remove the wireless adapter. Delete
the file “Vnetusbr.sys” from:
c:\windows\system (for Windows 98/Me)
c:\winnt\system32\drivers (for Windows 2000)
c:\windows\system32\drivers (for Windows XP)
Then go to the Control Panel and delete the adapter from the
network configuration menu. Restart the PC and reinstall the
adapter.
