No, it doesn't. It just plugs into a USB port.

Arianna, the only Netgear wifi adaptor I could find that does not
require drivers is a model that plugs into your Ethernet port for its
connection and then plugs into a USB port for power. Does your adaptor
have two connections?

I don't know the model, but it's a Netgear.

Can you give us the make and model of that wifi adaptor? I haven't
seen
one yet that doesn't require a driver install.

This is a plug and play LAN wireless adapter.

Hi.
Note:
If you are using a USB wireless lan adapter, the switch will not help
you.
You need to install the software that came with the USB adapter.
If your Dell laptop has a built-in Wireless Lan adapter, then you
need
to
turn the switch on.
I have perchased a new Dell Latitude E5410 with Windows 7 pro, an
Intel
core
I5-M560 (2.66 GHZ), 4 GB DDR3-1333 MHZ and a 250 GB Western Digital
scorpio
black (7200 RPM/16 MB cash) hard drive.
The wireless switch is on the front.
I like this machine and the WLAN and Bluetooth are working great!
It runs Windows 7 pro 32-Bit now.
Best regards,
Adi.

I was trying to find a switch, but haven't located one.
I'll check again. I do hope there is one!

Hi,
On a lot of Dell laptops there is a wifi switch on the left side of
the
laptop.
It is a sliding switch, once you find it try switching it to the
opposite
direction and try your wireless access again

Using a Dell laptop, XP and Jaws 10, I'm trying to set up this
computer
on our wireless system. In device manager the USB wireless adapter
is
enabled but somehow it just doesn't see or try to connect to our
wireless
router.
I really need help on this one. I've set up computers before, but
this
one just doesn't seem to want to connect.
