Frequently Asked Questions - WG111v2 NETGEAR
How do I install the NETGEAR WG111v2 driver on Windows?

Can I use this adapter with macOS?
Yes, the WG111v2 supports Mac OS X. You may need to download a compatible driver from NETGEAR's website, as the included CD may only have Windows drivers.
Why is my WG111v2 not being detected?
First, check if the USB port is working by testing another device. Then, try a different USB port. Ensure you have installed the correct driver. If the LED does not light up, the adapter may be faulty.

The LED on my adapter is not on. What should I do?
