drivers for old Zyxel wireless card

I'm putting an old Zyxel wireless card NWD-370N into an oldish Windows 7 box, and I can't find windows 7 drivers for the card (it came out of a Vista box).

Every time I try to find a repository online, I end up with some driver tool that wants to fix 68 problems on my computer...etc.

Yes, I have some obsolete drivers on my PC, but it runs fine. Is there any sort of a generic 802.11N driver I can install that will get the Zyxel running? or do I need to go to Microcenter and drop $20 on a newer adapter?

thanks,

Marc

note your NWD-370N uses an Atheros XSPAN EWC Solution for it's chipset so if you try Atheros drivers you may have better luck.
 
There is No Atheros XSPAN EWC chipset per-se.

However cards that are market as "Atheros XSPAN EWC" seems to use AR5008 chipset.

So try to Log to this page, scroll down and download the Win 7 drivers.

That said, you can also try peeling the Zyxel sticker, it might be that the real Chipset info will reveal itsel.

Thank you, Jack. I'll give those drivers a try and go after the sticker if needed. As old as the card is, I suspect the sticker will be brittle at best.
