#Linksys wmp54g v4 driver update
Right click on the Network Card in Device Manager and select Update Driver Software. Find it in the list of devices and uninstall it. If you have it installed and you can't find it, you may have already associated it with another driver and it is not working. If you don't have the network card installed yet, install it then look for it. Now go into the Device Manager and find the Network Card (should be flagged under Network Adapters since the driver hasn't been found yet by Windows). Run it and make sure to choose the option to JUST INSTALL THE DRIVERS. Obviously throw on a flash drive if you are downloading from another computer. As stated before, do a Google to find your chipset (no identifiers on the card ). In the case of my v4.1, it is the one listed as PCI/mPCI/CB (RT256x/RT266x). From the link given above, find your chipset (under part number column) and then click to download. Here' is the link to the Ralink support page with all the drivers: Ralink Corp. If you have another version of the card, you may have to search to find out what version of Ralink's chipset it is using or do a little try and die until you get it. I have v4.1 of the card which uses the RT256x chipset. Why Linksys/Cisco won't update their drivers is beyond me as they are readily available from the OEM Ralink (available since August!!). Okay, I spent the better part of half a day and got the WMP54G working under Windows 7 64 bit. Thsi should be it! If you still have problems call Linksys support, they were very helpful! Scroll down to Networks, click on the + sign, (if you have installed the software already you should have a plus sign and you should see Linksys Wireless-G PCI Adapter)ĭouble click on the Linksys Wireless-G PCI Adapter, then click on the Driver Tab on the top of the window, and click on Update Driver.Ĭlick on the first selection "Search automatically for updated driver software" Your computer will start the search for the drivers that you recently downloaded and saved on your computer. Once you open the Systems icon, on the left hand side click on Device Manager. Go to your computer, click on START and click on Control Panel, then search for the Systems icon.

Search for "WMP54G v4.0" (this is the one I have) and click on the 32 bit driver download (64 bit is not yet availiabel, if you have windows vista 64 bit, Linksys will tell you that they don't have a release for the compatible drivers yet and to call Microsoft and have them recommend you a wireless adapter)ĭownload and save the drivers and you will have to UnZip the file I finally called up Linksys support (80) and got step by step help from them. I have been having problems when installing my Linksys WMP54G PCI Adapter. I just followed these steps to successfully install the drivers on Vista RC1 x86 with one small change: use "WINXP" instead of "WINX64" in step #7 * If you see "2L (Conceptronic)" in the left-hand list then skip to step #9ħ) Click "Have Disk" and browse to "C:\Program Files (x86)\RALINK\RT6x Wireless LAN Card\Installer\WINX64"ĩ) In the left-hand list select "2L (Conceptronic)" in the right-hand list select "Conceptronic 54g Wireless PCI Card Version 3.2.0.0 "ġ0) Click yes when asked if you're sure you want to install these drivers
We're doing this the old-fashioned way.ģ) Go to "Control Panel" -> "Hardware and Sound" -> "Device Manager"Ĥ) Under "Other Devices" you should see an item named "Network Controller" right click on it and select "Update Driver Software."ĥ) Click "Browse my computer for driver software"Ħ) Click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer" * If a "Found New Hardware" window pops up at this point just close it. Here's how I did it:ġ) Go to and download the driver package named "RT61+RT2500" (notice in the "OS" section for this download it includes "圆4" support this is important!)Ģ) Run the install file (the filename is like 40 feet long) and then reboot (NOTE: on the first screen I chose "Optimize for WiFi mode".
I've noticed a lot of posts regarding the lack of Vista-compatible Linksys wireless card drivers but no posted solutions of this nature.
