All - I am experiencing the following problems. I picked up a new Dell Studio PC this afternoon that is pre-loaded with Vista Premium 64bit edition. My home network and internet connection conists of 3 devices (1 XBOX360, 1 XP Laptop 1 Vista laptop). All of these work fine and connect to my WRT54G wireless network. When plugging in my Wireless G USB adapter into my new PC it failed to install the correct drivers off the the CD I had. I searched online but could not find anything more suitable. I've been hearing about problems with Linksys routers, but wondered if this is a problem with bad drivers rathar than connectivity. I have the WRT54G v 3 router and recently bought a new HP HDX with windows vista x64 and had trouble staying connected to the internet. My Dell running XP and Mac computer both stay connect without any problems. I can confirm that Linksys WRT54G lower editions do not work with Windows Vista. Linksys Free Driver Download| Keep your Linksys drivers up to date with the world's most popular driver download site. WRT54G GPL Code, WRT54G Firmware. WRT54G Downloads; WRT54G Downloads. Share the Article. No firmware/driver download available. Hardware version 8.1. I changed numerous setting on computer and router, downloaded firmware, driver, and tried every trick I could find posted on forums to no avail. About 10 hours were spent with both Linksys technical support and HP HDX technical support and Vista technical support to fix the problem. Discovered this version is incompatable (although it says compatable on Linksys web site) with Windows Vista. Linksys tried to charge me $30 to talk to their 'special technical support' or $30 to get an extended warranty to try some 'other things'. I ended up just using their online tech guys and was much happier with their service/help - alas the 'other things' did not work. Time was lost but didn't have to pay more money for nothing. Decided to leave Linksys after the ordeal and looking for a new router. If you've tried everything including the help on this post - you are not alone.
