What Is Wireless Network Adapter

How do I install my wireless network adapter?


I have bought a netgear Wpn111 and I don't know where to start It also doesn't have an earthanet controller, driver, what do i need to do to connect this up to my network ? Any ideas

Thank you need answers asap please as warranty is limited on this product

Normally a manual should accompany your new adapter.
If the adapter is in usb form just connect it to one of the available ports and windows will try and install the driver for it
If the adapter comes in form of a card you will have to open your desktop and install it into one of your pci slots - they are white in colour so you won't miss it.
If your computer is a laptop just look at the sides and you will find a network slot for connecting wireless cards.
Regarding driver you can get it from your device manufacturer website. For netgear visit http://www.netgear.com or simply type netgear into google search and follow the instruction
