I'm testing Windows Server 2008 standard in a room without wired Ethernet.
I installed a LinkSys USB Wireless-G device (WUSB54CG) using the latest
Vista drivers. The install appears to have worked, except for the fact I
can't enable the wireless adapter. When I attempt to enable the wireless
adapter, a pop-up shows the status change from disabled to enabled, but the
adapter never actually gets enabled.

I looked at the local ploicies and firewall to see if wireless is prohibited
in Server 2008, but I didn't find anything relevent. Does anyone have any
idea on how to get this adapter enabled?

Hello Michael,

Will be a driver problem. You have to find a driver for 2008, even if it
looks that it is installed.
