Hello, I bought a Maxesla Mini USB WiFi adapter
I installed the CD but it doesn't pick up any network, there's an icon in the taskbar with a red cross, I've spent a lot of time trying to get it to work
but nothing works, even though it worked when I first installed it, but when my computer restarted it didn't work anymore
I'm on a desktop PC running Windows 7.

    Hello,

    Go to Start
    In the Search bar
    Type --> devmgmt.msc and OK.

    Provide the hardware identification number of the Maxesla Mini USB WiFi Adapter
    Look at this --> Find a device's identification number
    Post the number in your next message.

    Is Windows 7 32 or 64 bits?

      Hello, thank you for the response

      Actually, I have two numbers
      USB\VID_0BDA&PID_B812&REV_0210
      The second one is
      USB\VID_0BDA&PID_B812

      Windows 7 on 64 bits

      Problem solved, by looking carefully I went into Freebox OS and by changing the channels I got the network on the desktop PC, so I don't understand why it doesn't change channels automatically, if you have the solution... Thank you.

        You can use the wifi radar to search for the least congested channels, but indeed the fbx does this automatically in theory.
        Maybe there are interferences that it doesn't measure well; moreover, the congestion at the box level is not the same as at the PC level, especially if the latter is closer to neighboring networks.
