Here is a potentially great product that (if all claims are true) would solve my home office issues, yet it is not officially supported in a 64-bit environment as Belkin does not officially have a 64-bit driver.Can anyone suggest a 'gray market' 64-bit driver for the Belkin F5U273?Or do I have no other option than to 'step down' my operating system to the 32-bit environment (Dell Studio 1747)?
Ive been trying to install my wireless drivers, when you run them form CD everything seems fine and says installed, but when it says connect your usb device it starts to instal the intantly stops and says driver not installed..
Its a belkin G usb wireless adapter 802.11g model number F5D7050
Any help would be great , had to switch back to vista to use the internet.
Like everyone else I've been having trouble with getting the F5D7050 to work on Windows 7 32-bit. I went through the different compatibility modes using the v4 drivers from Belkin's site. My results ranged from OS not recognizing the driver as compatible to BSOD when using the network. Finally I tried Vista SP1 mode. It works! That's the only mode that worked for me.
This is my first time posting on the forums and I'm having issues with my Belkin wireless adapter (Model: F5D9050 Ver: 3000). I've been browsing through the forums and have seen a lot of the threads with people having issues with the Belkin F5D7050 and I've tried fixes outlined throughout those pages with the drivers for my device obviously.
I've tried compatibility mode with XP and Vista drivers, I've tried installing and uninstalling so many times it's not even funny but no matter what I've done the device always comes up as unrecognized and the drivers never load properly.
I wasn't sure if anyone could offer up any insight on something else I could try or if anyone else has been able to get this particular USB Wireless adapter working? I'm running the 64bit version of Windows 7 Build 7100 as well.
I believed the hype, waited to buy a new computer until 7 came out. Been doing this since before there even WAS Windows, and it does it to me every time. Everything was supposed to work that worked with Vista, which was supposed to run everything that ran on XP, etc. - I got the computer, a Compaq desktop, got a Linksys wireless adapter to go with it. Wouldn't install. Wouldn't even recognize the dang thing was plugged in.
Called Linksys, talked to some woman in Indonesia who told me there was no driver for Windows 7 yet. Went back to BestBuy where I got the adapter, thinking they could help. Seems their geeks aren't any geekier than I am. Got a refund, bought a Belkin G family. At least the computer recognized that the Belkin is plugged in, and it knows there is a signal, but it refuses to connect.
That's weird. Good signal, knows it is a Motorola adapter, but will NOT connect! Re-installed it in compatibility mode. It just laughs at me. Seriously, can I go back to DOS? Barring that, is there anything else I can do besides wait for an adapter to ship with a driver that works on 7?
I recently bought a USB 2.0 upgrade kit, but after plugging it in, my computer hasn't seemed to recognise it as 2.0 or even a Belkin product. Drivers were installed when I started windows, but they were just generic Microsoft ones, and I can't seem to find the Belkin drivers anywhere.
I tried using the ones that were on the disc, but windows tells me that up-to-date ones are already installed. I've contacted Belkin, after looking all over their site (the product I have doesn't seem to be listed in the driver section, but I found a pdf manual for it).
I'm having problems with my belkin wlan card on windows 7 64bit.
I have tried what seems like hundreds of different driver/method combos all to no avail.
My WLAN card is a Belkin F5d7000 E, version 1100ea.
It has an atheros AR2413A - 001 chipset.
I really can't figure out where I'm going wrong, I've tried to run in compatability mode on pretty much every setting, always ran as administrator, and am fresh out of ideas.
I had a sabrent wireless desktop card that was a major problem after upgrading to Windows 7. It would some a fe wminutes and then do nothing for the next 12 hours. SOmetime it would should the connection is all good, at at times it would say DNS server is not responding.
I used the latest RALINK drivers from their website that said it was for Windows 7. Called Sabrent and RALINK like 10 times, left voicemails and notes for tech support, they never EVER called me back.
Since I had this Belkin wireles routre at home which has been doing pretty good, I decided to buy a belkin wireless card too. I landed up buying the Belkin F5D8001 N1 Desktop Wireless card.
Guess what? it comes with a XP CD. Their site has a newer version for Visa 32/64 bit as well. How ever the XP software does not get installed from the CD. If I point to the drivers folder on the CD it does not work too.
When I try installing the new execuctable on their website (vista 32/64 bit) it says the version could not be determined. I tried the compatibility mode for every damn possible version XP, Win 2000, Vista SP1 , SP2...no luck...its the same message.
Belkin says they don't know when the windows 7 driver will be out.
Where can I find a windows 7, Belkin wireless g usb network adapter driver? Can you please help me? I live in Asia now in the Philippines. Dave Hargrove, Have windows 7 starter on this netbook
i updated my pc from vista to windows 7 yesterday, when i had vista my internet work perfectly!! never a problem... but when i installed belkin software off the disk that it came up with, plug your usb in.... so i did, but after a 10min wait, nothing happend. i have uninstalled and tryed again, but no luck.... still the same problem..
any one know any good ideas to get the wireless usb working?
I just installed windows 7 RC on my computer. Everything loaded fine, but I am having trouble getting my belkin wireless G usb working. I run the driver and it installs fine, and when it prompts me to insert the usb. When I insert the usb nothing happens. I have tried other USB ports and running in different compatability modes. It worked fine in XP. On the hardware screen I can see that it is plugged in, but it says it is an unknown wireless usb card (sor something similar to that).
Just thought i would post a workaround, fix, solution for this until ms does possibly.... although it may be a belkin problem to fix
Hardware affected: Belkin Network USB Hub F5l009
Situation: Installing and getting usb network hub to communicate
Problem: Constant disconnecting of drives and Control Center crash/hang on exit. Under Windows 7 the drives/printer would connect, but then upon initial scan of a device it would close the connection, losing it completely, but still showing the device and devices attached to hub available on the network, not disabled like i have seen it show before when a problem with a device on the hub would occur.
Resolution(s): First running both the install software under vista comp and the actual connect.exe (Control Center) under vista comp after install before initial run. Secondly, under XP this device worked fine without having to manually port forward the hub thru the router. Whether a flaw with the software under XP or the utilization of Upnp under XP (which i use on xp and network).
Quick solve: Make sure to forward the ports manually, both tcp and udp. Also putting the device on DMZ will not work..
I have a Belkin wireless unit what kind of # am I looking for ? There are a lot of numbers on it so which one do I need ? I'm looking for my security number for my wireless.
I wonder if anyone has got this one to work, I've tried everything, I did have problems with it on Windows XP also, but always got it to work after a while, but now it seem impossible to get it working and im in desperate need for help!
I've installed the latest drivers and when it tells me to plug in the USB adapter, I do that but then it says it can't find it but it did install the software and such so I reboot a few times to see if it starts working, but no, it just wont work, i've done the compability thing also but still doesnt want to work.
I read alot topics on this forum to try solve my problem. I found in here 2 topics about Belkin Wireless G USB adapter , but still i have a problem
I describe whats the problem .
I try to instal on my Windows 7 x64 b.7000 drivers for belkin w g usb adapter f5d7050

anyway my main problem is to instal belkin drivers 4 adapter to WORK fine.
Anyways i just got my windows 7 ultimate working and everything is working fine expect my network adapter. I installed the vista drivers found on the belkin website. Which did the trick and made it work. But i noticed every 2 hours or so the adapter would disconnect from my internet while everyone else in the house who are on xp/vista works percfectly.
Now im not sure if this is because my network adapter isn't compatilbe with windows 7 or something else. Oh and im using Belkin Wire G+ Mimo ver 3001
Can anyone help me out, and also is anyone else getting this problem If there is nothing i can do what network adapter would you guys recommend which works with windows 7 and i can get in the uk :P?
Have just installed Windows 7 Home Premium, I installed my Belkin F5D7000 PCI wireless internet adaptor drivers, installed the card when prompted and when I rebooted, the computer got to the starting windows screen then booted again and went into black screen mode giving me the option of starting windows normally (didn't work) or system repair, system repair then did a system restore and therefore I lost the drivers. I reinstalled the drivers and it all works so long as I don't turn my PC off. I have tried to use windows device manager to update the drivers but it reckons they're up to date.
Trying to install a Belkin Wireless or Retail Plus+ N USB Adapter, which the microsoft page says is compatible with Windows 7 (for the Belkin) and receiving an error basically saying the driver is not compatible with this operating system.
This is a brand new computer that came with Windows 7 installed and has 0 internet access right now....what can you suggest?
Also, I do have a wired internet access point in my house I can move it to, if there is something I need to download I can probably do this.
It's been hours, and I feel like I may have to take the whole thing back.
I would prefer to use the Retail Plus+ USB adapter for this system if given the choice, since the Belkin is in use on another computer in the house, but I'll take whatever is out there.
ive got windows 7 ultimate. Ive been trying to install my wireless drivers, when you run them form CD everything seems fine and says installed, but when it says connect your usb device it starts to instal the intantly stops and says driver not installed..
I have a question, may be someone knows: I ran out of the USB slots, so I decided to use an add-on PCI card. I have an old Belkin USB 2.0 card, not sure whether this is exactly the model number that I found on their website, but may well be, since the card, according to Belkin is supposed towork on "Windows® 98 SE, Me, 2000, OS, or XP with USB 2.0 support".
Now, will this thing work with Windows 7 x64? Is there anyway to find a proper driver, or the system has some generic driver that would be good enough?
I could just try and plug it in of course, but thought to ask first, may be someone knows and will save me some trouble - if there is any trouble waiting for me .
We just got a new computer and laptop,both with windows 7 and our usb adapter won't work for the new windows..is there a driver download out there yet to bring our system up to date without buying a whole new router and adapters?
After I installed my Belkin N150 wireless router, my desktop computer crashed. Windows 7 will not boot up.Anyone else had this problem and how did you solve it?
On this laptop, we tried to connect to our router via this USB Network adapter. We went into 'Manage wireless networks' and disabled the Belkin Wireless adapter, to see what would happen if we re-enabled it. But after we disabled it, it dissapeared. We can't even set it up again. what do we do?
just having troubles connecting too Internet i am currently using a BELKIN N wireless USB adaptor f5d8053 version 3 on my windows 7 computer and just wondering if some 1 could point me in the right direction .
I'm having a problem with using USB network adapters, I've tried three different ones and they all end up shutting off my computer every few hours. It is some form of USB conflict I can't seem to fix.
I tried switching to a PCI card, but since I happen to be in a corner in the house having the wireless adapter on top of the desk is the only thing that seems to get me any sort of signal. But the USB Adapters all persist in shutting me down. Just a hard-shutoff with no warning, all of a sudden bam, its just powered off.
Right now I'm using a Belkin N+ USB Adapter. Any ideas on how to correct this issue? I have several other USB devices plugged in as well: KVM switch, external hard drive, webcam, mouse+keyboard.
