Inventor not recognizing WIFI adapter

[Garrett.d.w]

So recently I purcahsed a Linsys USB wireless network adapter as shown here (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0054YQO5C/...=B0054 YQO5C). Simply put, it works when I am browsing the internet, sharing my printer, moving documents, etc. The issue only crops up when I try to access the internet through an application (like activating Inventor or playing Starcraft). As far as I can tell, the aplications don't recognize the adapter as an internet connection.

Any ideas as to how to fix this? If need be I can provide system info.

PS, "I thinks" and "I'm not sure, but"s are welcome. I just need ideas on where to start my debugging.

Did you go to the manufacturer's website for drivers, or are you using the generic windows drivers?

Actually, just solved it
Updated windows 7 and the problem disappeared.
