The following troubleshooting guides provide answers to some of the more
common problems, which you may encounter while installing or using
ASUS WLAN Card products. If you encounter difficulties that are not

Verify if the ASUS WLAN Card is installed correctly.

When the ASUS WLAN Card setup is complete, you can verify if the driver
has been setup properly. Right click My Computer, select Properties, and
click the Device Manager tab. Then double-click the Network adapters
icon; you should see “ASUS 802.11b Network Adapter” with an icon of
an expansion card. There should not be a “!” or “?” (problem) or “x”
(disabled) symbol over this icon.

There is a yellow exclamation mark or a yellow question mark
in Device Manager in front of my ASUS WLAN Card.

To resolve the problem, you should update/reinstall the ASUS WLAN Card
driver. In “Device Manager”, right click ASUS 802.11b Network Adapter,
select Properties, and select Driver tab. Click on Update Driver button,
then follow the “Update Device Driver Wizard” to complete the driver
installation.

In addition, you may be able to resolve this issue by reinstalling the driver.

Manager”, and then run the Add New Hardware Wizard from the Control
Panel
.
