Note:The chipset is a part of the mainboard that computer components are attached or connected to.
Testing a different USB device
- If the FRITZ!WLAN Stick is still not detected, check whether other USB devices (for example a USB printer) are detected when you connect them to the same USB port on the computer:
- If other USB devices are also not detected, the computer's USB port may be defective.

- Install the FRITZ!WLAN Stick on a different computer and check whether the same error also occurs with that computer.
- If the error does not occur with the other computer, consult the manufacturer of the first computer. There is no error on the part of the FRITZ!WLAN Stick.
