Belkin Surf & Share Wireless USB Adapters (F7D2101) not working after windows 7 install

I have just installed windows 7 and now my Belkin Surf & Share Wireless USB Adapter is not working as in it is seen but the PC says there are no wireless networks available, the adapter is enabled but doesn't seem to work? The wireless network I am using is working fine as my laptop connects to it no problem. When I have tried troubleshooting it say that some drivers may be missing, I have been to the belkin website and installed the relevant drivers but still no success.. Help appreciated please...

SOURCE: how to set up network on belkin G+ wireless usb adapter

do you have a Wireless Router + Broadband modem?

This is like a base station to which your remote wireless node communicates (to get connected to your home network and internet.

something like this http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=187337 for an ADSL connection.

If you are on cable, you can either get a Router similar to the one above (but for cable) http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_Product_C2&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1138056788757&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper&lid=8875739789B01

or if your Cable modem has LAN ports you may just be able to use an "Access Point" to add Wireless capabilities. http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_Product_C2&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1126536803676&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper&lid=0367639789B22

SOURCE: I have Belkin's Play Wireless

I don't think it's a belkin issue I have the same one and I did buy another type and ended up taking it back because it wouldn't even pick up a signal whereupon I was told windows updates messes with them to which I thought er right but as it turns out it my belkin played up si I restored to before a critical update and hey it works again.

Dont work with my computer?

You need to install the Belkin software drivers on the computer. Once installed use the Belkin software controls to set up, not the Windows Control Panel wireless set up.
