MN-720

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

I lost the cd that came with this adapter. microsoft
doesn't have the drivers for it on their website and are
too stupid to put it in autoupdate. i can't use this
adapter till i find drivers for it. why can't MS just
put the drivers on their website like normal companies.

Thanks for this Barb.
I could see the drivers for MN-710 but not MN-730.
If MS could give them in CD why not here.

They are provided alongwith 720's.
See component release for the same. I did not check it
