I have just purchased a new laptop. The system is Win7. My office uses WIFI picked up from the office above (with their permission, included in the rent). It is too weak to pick up without boosting. I have been using a Realtek USB Wireless Lan Driver and Utility system with a booster and external antenna. The driver is a RTL8187_windriver. It will not work on Win7. I have tried every way to get a compatible driver for Win7. Have down loaded one, was told by the computer that it was not compatible and it would find me one on the internet that is. It did that, downloaded that and it still doesn't work. Any idea boffins? I can't run a cable from their system due to the distance.
I currently have to go up to the taverna above to work and this is not good for the liver
