    Good evening, I go to the website where the software is written on the key's packaging and I download it
    And my PC does not recognize it.

        You need to remove the USB drive, restart the PC, wait for Windows to open, plug in the USB drive, and try again.

      Did you do it the way I just described?
      If you install the driver with the key on the PC, it often doesn't work.
      Your version of Windows?

      Restart the installation without the USB drive plugged into the PC.
      Then start Windows and afterwards plug in the USB drive.

      I redid everything, still nothing
      the key flashes when it is engaged though
      but I think there must be a setting to enable on the PC that I missed

      When you click on the Wi-Fi icon at the bottom right of the taskbar, what do you see?

    You will likely get the same result with another key.
    Do you have the Wi-Fi icon on the taskbar like here to the left of the speaker icon??

      You will surely achieve the same result with another key.
      not a key, a wifi/usb adapter ....
      a key is just memory.
      What makes you think that another one won't be able to install its drivers?

      I think the driver is correctly installed because of this sentence from post 11
      it's an icon with a small screen that says connected to the internet

      As long as he sees the icon, it means the driver is installed.
      It is also called a Wi-Fi key: https://www.ldlc.com/informatique/reseau/carte-reseau/c4306/+fv1270-6894.html

      No, I don't have the Wi-Fi icon appearing
      I have the icon with the small internet screen.

      I really like LDLC, but we shouldn't call it a wifi key.
      It creates confusion with the encryption key that is also called that.
      We don't say keyboard key or mouse key....
      That said, in principle,
      we always install drivers before the hardware on Windows, otherwise it might install the wrong product.
      So it's better to delete it from the device manager, remove the drivers, if we can find them, and restart the installation.

      No, I don’t have the Wi-Fi icon appearing
      I have the icon with the small internet screen.

      In that case, it’s different; it could be that the driver is not installed.
      Yet you told me that in the network adapter section there was no orange triangular warning sign.
      You can go back to Device Manager, click on network adapters, and see if you see your Wi-Fi network adapter.

    Hello,

    Right-click on Start
    Control Panel
    Network and Sharing Center
    Change adapter settings
    Right-click on --> Ethernet card
    Properties
    Right-click on --> Avast firewall NDIS filter miniport
    Uninstall it
    Restart the PC.

    Do the same with the wireless card.

    Try again with the wifi USB key.

    The human being is at its best when things are at their worst.

      Hi cado21,

      Oops, read too quickly !!
      However, Avast firewall NDIS filter miniport often causes problems, so it's unnecessary for proper functioning.
