Multi booting laptop
« on: September 12, 2010, 06:02:49 PM »
I have a triple booting laptop (I run a computer group for older people, I am old myself) with a Netgear WGR614 Router. The 3 OSes are WinXP, Vista Home Premium and Windows 7 Ultimate. The router has been set up and works OK with Vista and XP but when I try to access it with Win 7 it asks for a password which I supply and it is the same password I use with the other systems, yet I get the message that the password is wrong. I have tried setting up a new profile but nothing I do helps.  ???
If you find the time please help, I would be very grateful.

I believe the original Netgear WGR614  Router drivers that come from the CD aren't compatible with Windows 7, depending on router version.

You can check here:
http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/11127/kw/Windows%207/r_id/100109

Under 'Windows 7 Status for NETGEAR Routers'

If your using router version 9 or older (should be labeled under the router or on the box) you have to update the drivers from there website, if available.

WGR614v8 (Windows 7 Drivers):
ftp://downloads.netgear.com/files/WGR614v8_CD_230-10379-06v1.5.zip

WGR614v9 (Windows 7 Drivers):
ftp://downloads.netgear.com/files/WGR614v9_230-10609-08v3.6.zip

WGR614v10 (Already compatible)


Also 64bit Operating Systems will not work with older CD Drivers.


See if that helps first.
