Limited Access. Unidentified Network

[Kaithedestroyer]

I just got the D-Link Wireless N 150 Desktop PCI Adapter cause I wanted to connect to the wifi without tethering my phone to my pc.

After I installed everything, it doesn't connected to the internet. I got the limited access and unidentified network problems instead. I updated the driver and still nothing worked.

It worked when I tethered my phone, which was connected to the same wifi connection. But why not on my wireless adapter? How do I fix this?

Did you purchase it in Malaysia?

Yeah. On a bargain computer store. It's still in its package when I pick it up.

OK, if you downloaded the drivers from the link you gave me, that might be the problem. Drivers meant for North America are slightly different than those for outside NA. There are more channels outside of NA. This is the link to the South Asia drivers:

DWA-525 Drivers

Give these a try.

Okay. So, should I reinstall everything?

Well go into Programs and Features and see if there is an option to uninstall the D-Link drivers you've already installed. If there is, uninstall them. Windows is usually pretty good about removing network drivers without asking you to reboot afterwards. Once you've removed the old drivers, then install the new ones.

Okay. Thanks
