I guess that entitles me to say:

Noob.

B-Link RTL8191SU Wireless LAN 802.11n USB 2.0 Network Adapter

The hash for the file is not present in the specified catalog file. The file is likely corrupt or the victim of tampering.

If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and check the support section for the driver software.

can't install the new lastest driver 2014-03-05.

the adapter made in china ? and drivers might be made China aswell?
anyone know why i can't install the drivers ?

Because if the card looks anything like this:

http://www.dx.com/p/lb-link-bl-lw06-...e-black-213342

Then it's a 150Mbps adapter and those are the wrong drivers (or it's fake and mislabelled)

Re: Virgin Media WNDA3200 wireless adapter

I disable driver signature enforcement in windows 8 and install drivers its still at 150Mbps.
the drivers are right its mislabelled.
why did they mislabelled the adapter for ? China make fake adapter?

i re-inserted Netgear WNDA3200 wireless adapter
and changed the setting
security type:- WPA2-PERSONAL
encryption type:- AES
now running at 300Mbps.

Re: Virgin Media WNDA3200 wireless adapter

where are you trying to install the driver from? Is it already on your pc, downloaded through windows update or have you fetched it yourself from the manufacturers website?

Re: Virgin Media WNDA3200 wireless adapter

windows 8.1 automatically install the drivers for me.
i tried the web site LB link web site download the drivers but won't install. i had to disable driver signature enforcement. then the drivers work.

i also tried www.realtek.com download drivers from there also. still at 150Mbps

RTL8191SU Realtek web site does say it runs at 300Mbps. must be something wrong with the adapter or its fake

The chip supports 300Mbps in one direction only and it still requires two antenna to do so. Most manufacturers are too lazy and only connect one antenna.
