The Samsung WIS09ABGN is actually just a (very expensive) Ralink RT2850-based 802.11 adapter, very similar to the LinkSys WUSB600N v2, and can use either of those drivers. ![]() Within a few more minutes, I had figured out the following and was up and running with the WIS09ABGN on my desktop PC: The hint had since disappeared from Answers but enough of it was still in Google's cache to point me in the right direction. My first few Google searches turned up nothing, but then I noticed a comment from Yahoo! Answers that gave me a hint. On my second call back, a different technician took the time to put me on hold and actually check, but returned 5 minutes later and said the same: "It's proprietary technology, we did not make it for PCs, so you cannot use it with Windows." Samsung's technicians, though friendly and toll-free, insisted the device was proprietary and no software existed for using it on a PC. Plugging it into one of my Windows 7 boxes, I was alerted no supporting drivers were found, and Windows Update was clueless as well. This got me wondering, "Would this work on one of my desktop machines?" I've since upgraded to a GoogleTV-enabled player, and now have the old WIS09ABGN adapter lying around. It didn't have built-in Wi-Fi, but came with a WIS09ABGN USB Wireless adapter. About a year ago I purchased a Samsung Blu-Ray player. ![]()
