Sounds to me like you didn't copy over the other driver or did you have the wifi pluged in? I know stuped ? but I must ask.
The ASUS control center step comes before the driver copy in the instructions; in either case I did try copying it first and it still didn't work. And yeah, the connector was plugged in both times. :P

Sorry about being so late to get back, have you looked to see if your card is enabled...To find out right click my computer and click on properties, then click on hardware, then device manager, then network adaptors here you should see the buffalo wli-u2-KG54-YB wireless lan adaptor if you don't then it has not been installed correctly. If its there click on it and see if it has been enabled or disabeled ( make sure its enabeled ) see if this solves your problem. If its not there then go back and follow the first few steps to install then follow the steps I posted before and you shouldn't have any problems running what ever you want.
Good Luck, WD

After this I would install the file into the system32\driver folder and at this time plug in the wifi and see if windows will do the install.

I follow you now my web mail has been all screwed up and I just received your first post as I didn't look at the forum. I just figured you had a nintendo one. Whats wrong with your drivers, you can still set it up the same way as in my set up I'm sure of that.

I'm not to sure if this will work but what I've read it should. I'm thinking your install may be missing info. so go back and remove and here's a link for the products driver and instuctions.

Let me know if this works and if it does just follow my steps and you should be fine.
anytime, WD

I had some time and did a full blown search on your product and it turns out they don't even make a softtap usb anything, i was hoping there might be some sort of driver that may work that they would have in a similer usb product. So with that in mind your going to have to buy either a nintendo or a similer product. The range on the Nin. isn't bad but I'm sure you might find something a little better for a few dollars more. Not sure were you live but in Canada Nin costs $35 dollars vs. $50 to $100 dollars for something else. Over all I'm happy with it and with these instuctions you'll be able to run all wireless devices though it. Once you have it installed just follow the inst. I'll send to you and everything should work 100%.
Sorry we could'nt make it work, keep me informed
Anytime, WD

I keep on getting ip address conflicts. I've tried alot, and I can't seem to get it right.. no matter what ip adresses things are, I cant set up the sharing thingy because of the ip adress conflicts!!
And I saw that there is a list of 3 things under your lan/high speed internet. There is only 2 in mine - am I missing something? Did I miss a step?

You don't have the asus drivers installed, go back and start over and make sure you overwrite the existing files. (steps 1-6). Once you have done this you should be fine, then just follow the steps I sent you in your personal message.
Anytime, WD

I watch your video and your in the wrong connection, go into the wireless connection and everything will work after that. Your really just mirroring your internet connection using the wifi connector
Good luck, WD

2)
Inside the Drivers folder of the RAR file, you will find modified Buffalo drivers. Install these drivers for the USB Connector. Then install the ASUS software (also in RAR file(eng_2371.zip)). When it prompts you to restart, select No. I have found that there is no need to.
How do you download the RAR file(eng_2371.zip) I can find it but dunno what to do after that when I click it a whole bunch of other things pop up

Get it from the mega upload site then enter the letters in the box top right. Then click download, it should put you in que for a few seconds then download file...
