Windows 7 Network Icon Not Working

[Russosaur]

So I had to reinstall the drivers for my WIFI adapter Netgear WN111v2 after doing so I am now having a problem with the network icon reading things wrong, I bugs me A LOT does anyone know how to fix this. I have reinstalled drivers twice with no success.

Here is my problem with a snapshot of my desktop sorry I couldn't think of another way to put a picture on here.

Hi

Try this.... uninstall the netgear drivers again WITH THE NETGEAR STICK NOT CONNECTED...

Then reinstall them FROM THE CD .....with the stick still NOT CONNECTED ...until it instructs you to connect the stick at the end...

Also...make sure you tell the netgear install that you want to use the NETGEAR SMARTWIZARD...NOT use windows wireless...

All the best Brett

Okay I got it to work on reboot, but I'm still having the problem of the tray icon not displaying the correct info. It shows the "Network connections are available" when it should show the 5 bars without the yellow star.

Hi

You need to bring up the smart wizard then select your network after it scans the SAVE YOUR PROFILE after putting in your wireless password etc...

I'm connected to the internet and everything works, I even tried what u said but the icon is still messed up. That's the only thing wrong.

It's their, and both of them worked fine then the drivers corrupt so after I reinstalled the drivers the windows Network this is like broken, but the netgear one is fine.

Hi

The windows one is NOT meant to work afterwards as the NETGEAR one takes over...
