Hello everyone. I am new here, I hope I haven't chosen the wrong forum... my apologies in advance if that's the case. So, I bought a USB key to connect WiFi to my desktop (Packard Bell running Windows Vista) brand of the key: Startech USB 2.0 802.11b.
I installed this key and the installation went well... my computer recognized the key, my key detects the available networks and their signal strength, but when I try to connect to my box, here is the error message that Windows displays (see the photo). Apparently, my settings are not correct on the computer. I tried to go to forums and attempted several manipulations, but nothing works. It’s not my box as it works with a laptop and is not blocked (I contacted my SFR customer service) and I don't know how to modify my computer's network settings!! PLEASE if anyone knows the answer, thank you for telling me the steps to follow, I am desperate. Thank you in advance

Go to start
Control Panel

Uninstall Realtek RTL8192EU wireless..., if present.

Go to Device Manager
Network adapters
Right-click on --> Realtek RTL8192EU....
Uninstall
Restart the pc.

Return to Device Manager
See what happens in network adapters.

Yes, unless it would be the one from the old wifi key?
