Hy! i m pretty new at this site.So dont mind any mistakes. I have tried everywhere but come up with nothing.
I have a Globalspanvirata USB ADSL WAN MODEM it does not work in both types of vista(i.e:x86,x64) but i found a way to work it in vista x86. But i used the same way in vista x64 but it say no drivers found for the modem.
I serached everywhere for drivers, and i found they did not have a offical website.
I went to many websites and downloaded many drivers but no luck.
To any expert can tell me is there a way to work this modem in vista x64?
I would be greatfull.
Feel free to ask any questions....

Hi Jinxjack,

USB ADSL modems where originally only intended for computers without Ethernet ports, You should really consider an upgrade because Ethernet has hundreds of advantages over USB especially for internet and networking performance.

I highly doubt your Globalspanvirata USB ADSL modem will ever work with Vista unless they update the drivers for it and they have had over 2 years to get it Vista ready :(

you wont belive what happened. I asked one of my friends a favor to bring his adsl router so tha i could connect to the internet. He gave it to me then i searched for the old modems drivers through internet by "New Hardware found", you know the one where it asks to seacrh through internet, i said yes. It found the driver and now i am online with my old USB modem.

Microsoft made a driver for you :D At least they stepped in on behalf of Globalspanvirata and made one available since Global never did :cool:
