I bought a used desktop and am using a Netgear wireless router on another desktop. I bought a generic USB wireless adapter to use on the used desktop that I just bought and when I boot up the used computer, it will connect to the AVG site and update my antivirus, but I can't get it to navigate the internet using my IE browser. If I try to manually update my antivirus it says there is no internet connection. Anybody got a clue, the used computer was used in a business and has Windows 2000 pro and came with the AVG already installed. I have used a Netgear USB wireless adapter from my laptop and it will work fine on the Win 2000 machine, I know sounds goofy. I don't understand why the generic adapter will connect and update my antivirus, but won't connect to anything else.
