Just bought a usb wifi adapter, netgear n600, everything went smoothly but it did not connect to the internet, limited connection,

 

connected to the router but it didn't connect to the internet, i don't know if it's the problem of the system, the hardware or the software.

That shit did not fix anything, ever in the time-space continuum.

Primary: Lenovo T61 / Intel Core2Duo T7200 @ 2.2GHz / 3GB DDR2 / NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M / Fedora 22 <<<< THE WHITE KNIGHT

Secondary: Compaq Presario CQ56 / AMD V130 @ 2.3GHz / 2GB DDR3 / AMD Radeon HD 4250 / Windows 8.1 <<< THE FORGOTTEN HERO

Okay. You downloaded this http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/WNDA3100V3/WNDA3100v3_v1.0.0.10.zip I guess.

 

Uninstall that S/W and Try with manual installation.

About that, It's just a basic tool. It worked for me several times. But it depends on what problem you are facing.

nope, of course not, still limited.

so let's troubleshoot this problem without assuming it's the drivers.

  1. Is the IPv4 properties for the USB adaptor set to get both the IP addresses and the DNS server addresses automatically?
  2. Are you getting an IP address from your router when connected by the USB adaptor? (note: 169.254.x.x means that you are NOT getting an IP from the router, the computer is just making one up)
  3. If you are, can you ping the router?
  4. If you can, does the default gateway that you got by DHCP match the router's IP address?
  5. If it does, are you getting proper DNS server address(es) from the router by DHCP?
  6. If you are, can you ping your DNS servers?
  7. if you can, can you ping a website such as google.com?
  8. if you can, you are online and are experiencing a non-driver software issue.

I expect that you will fail this checklist somewhere near the beginning or middle, please let us know which steps worked, and where you didn't get the expected result, and show us the results of each step up to where it fails. Please also try these steps in Safe Mode With Networking to rule out (some) software conflicts.

Looking to buy GTX690, other multi-GPU cards, or single-slot graphics cards:

One thing I have found that has given me issues in the past with Windows is if the Network is set to Public, it will not connect to the internet. Change this to Home if it is. Just a thought.
