    Looking for a driver and utility for the item above.Had to to a full reinstall of XP and cant find the driver disc.
    Windows fir some reason cant manage the adapter(networking noob :) )

    Trawled the net looking for a driver but no luck so far.These were sold by Argos about a year ago with the DS so maybe someone whos using one moight be able to give me a loan/copy of the driver disc.

    Thanks

    Its not a Belkin one--Its cable and wireless.The link above says its discontinued and then links to a newer Belkin one.

    There are not too many actual chips used among the different makes of wifi dongles, it may be possible to use a generic driver but first you need to find out what's inside the device.

    PC Wizzard will probe all devices on your system and will tell you about the usb dongle. Use it and post back what it reports about your Cable & Wireless dongle. There are plenty of other apps that will do the same, I'm not a windows user so maybe someone else can suggest another way.
