Huh?
Shane:
Not sure why that user posted that as teamviewer has nothing to do with this lol
Do me a fav, with my hardware identifier program, right click on the wireless adapter in the list and choose copy hardware IDs, past those in a post for me, and then I will go see what driver I can find.
I am sure there are other systems out there that have the same one but with newer drivers. i also still need to know the driver version you have installed. :wink:

Hi
Here is the Hardware identifier data for you.
USB\VID_13D3&PID_3247&REV_0801|USB\VID_13D3&PID_3247
Driver version is 2.1.1.0 supplied by Ralink
I downloaded this from the Medion site.
thanks and regards

Ok so I did some searching and looks like that wireless is used in all kinds of systems, so we can use a driver from one of them. Here I found a acer that uses that wireless, driver version is 3.01 and I downloaded the driver and checked the inf file and your hardware ID is in there. So these should work.
I forgot to ask what version of Windows you are on.
In case you need to try different ones the one I found was for the tower, Acer Aspire X1930
Here is the Windows 7 64 bit one (Looks like it has vista and xp with it as well)
http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Driver/Wireless%20LAN/Wireless%20LAN_Ralink_3.01.04.0000_W7x64_A.zip?acerid=634311139863017187&Step1=DESKTOP&Step2=ASPIRE&Step3=ASPIRE%20X1930&OS=711&LC=en&BC=ACER&SC=PA_6
There is no setup with it, so you extract the zip file and then go to device manager, open the wireless adapater there and go to driver and then click update driver. Then you tell windows you will search for the driver yourself and then choose the driver from the folder.
If you need 32 bit here it is

Hope that helps :wink:

Hi
I'm afraid that did not fix the problem, the new driver is listed as
Version: 3.1.4.0 and date 22/07/2010, still supplied by Ralink.
I thought I would let you know about the log-on process as I have not seen this process before, my W7 and W8.1 PC's
do not have the same screens, only this Vista Home Premium (fully updated) PC, even my Vista Ultimate PC,
when it was around did not have the same log-on screens, it just may be a clue.
The first screen is self explanatory
The second screen asks for a PIN, but I only have a 10 digit network key or passphrase I click on
"I want to enter the Network Key or Oassohrase instead"
The third screen is where I enter the key, I do not have a USB with network settings, then I click on connect
The fourth screen shows "Successfully connected" "Save this network" and
"start this connection automatically" which of course it does not.
I really help this will give some more clues to the problem.
Hang in there.
regards
savey
