i have a HP mini 210 1010NR netbook with usb ports that dont seem to like my Netgear Wireless-N 300 usb adapter. its new, just two weeks old, and was working fine in my netbook just yesterday.
also, wireless g is too low in my room so i have to use wireless N now.
anywlan, if i put the netgear adapter in my desktop, it feels firm in the port, and works just fine.
but the netbook keeps saying that the usb device has malfunctioned. soooo
what should i do at this point? currently im re installing drivers for it. other usb devices seem to work just fine.
EDIT: i also noticed that windows show a message saying "this device would work faster in a usb 2.0 port". i guess usb ports are malfunctioning already?
