ASUS usb N53 not detected

[Ayayaye]

Hey there,

I have an ASUS usb-N53 wireless adapter. It stopped working when I updated my pc to windows 10. I know there's a way to fix it : http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1693495/asus-usb-n53-detect-5ghz.html

The thing is, the first step in this thread is to go to device manager, select the ASUS n53 from the network adapters and delete its driver, in order to install another one that's compatible with windows 10. However, the N53 is not recognized at all by my computer; it doesn't even show up in the network adapters. I tried unplugging/plugging the usb multiple times, as well as reinstalling the utility and the old drivers but it doesn't work. Any solution?

Thanks!

I don't think you need to delete the drivers it's more a matter of installing the new one for Windows 10. Can you access the ASUS website? You can download new driver from there. The CD that came with the adapter shipped is really old the drivers were compiled in 2011.
