« on: September 27, 2009, 10:55:14 AM »
   Hi all, I had tried installing Windows 7 and one hurdle which was not install successfully is the Driver for Windows 7.  

Is there any way i can download the latest Win 7 driver for this Wireless in order for me to connect into the Internet?

 Regards Daleth

Hi,

 

I have that adapter, but haven't used it with Vista or Win7 yet, so I was curious, and, as usual, "Google is your friend" :).

 

I still haven't tried it, but I googled "wli-u2-kg125s driver vista", and found this:

 

http://dumpytips.blogspot.com/2008/08/buffalo-wireless-adapter-wli-u2-kg125s.html

 

that's for Vista 64, but I imagine it'll work for Win7 64 (you didn't mention whether you're looking for Win7 64 or 32 bit).

 

Try, and post back here as to how it works.

 

Jim

Hi,

 

I just tried it.  Downloaded the .rar, unrar'ed it, updated driver from Device Manager (let me choose) and point it to the new driver file, installed, and got connection.  I did have to tweak some driver settings afterwards (enable Afterburner and Xpress), and got 54mbps.

   At this time we do not support Windows 7 since it's technically not in full release yet. Many of the existing Vista drivers work for some models, but we have no 7 specific drivers.

daleth,

 

Oops :)...

 

Should work, I think, cuz the machine I did the test installation on was also Win7 64-bit :)...
