    win 10 cannot see dlink router


    I am trying to add a wireless dlink DIR-842 duel band router to my windows 10 system. It is not picked up in device manager and i have tried re- setting. All my other devices pick it up and set up was easy on my UBUNTU laptop,and huawi tablet and phone. I need this addapter to work with windows10 so i can hang some wireless Cctv webcams on it. running at 2.4 megHz (the camera`s are not currenly compatible with Linux so i can not use my laptop for this).

    My main Hub is virgin media connected Via WAN to the Dlink DIR-842 addapter .

    Help anyone?.

    regards Topper.
