Default Windows Xp Pro x64 Driver for Microfsoft Wireless USB Adapter MN-7



Does anyone know if subject Driver exists? If it does where can I find it? It
seems that even Microsoft cannot keep up with change. I am very satisfied
with the product but when I switched one of my computers to Xp x64 I find
that drivers are some time hard to come by.

Thank anyone.

No, sorry, it doesn't exist. Microsoft ceased production of the MN-700
series router and adapters several years ago. Which device are you
attempting to use, and have you just plugged it in? If it is the router,
you don't need the software and should just be able to connect.

I have a MN-710 adapter that I was using on one of my Xp computers and change
the OS to Windows Xp Pro x64 and found that I cannot load any of the network
software supplied with the MN-700 router and the adapter..If I knew which
chip that the MN-710 uses I might be able to find a driver elsewhere..I have
pluged the adapter in but the x64 system doesn't like it..Thanks

You don't need the software for the router because you're addressing the
firmware on the router itself, and should be able to use the operating
system networking setup to access it. As to the MN-710, that went out of
production probably four years ago now and if the OS doesn't recognize it
automatically you're quite honestly out of luck. Microsoft quit updating
the firmware when they stopped production. Good little adapter, but there
will not be any support coming out for it.
