I’ve recently bought VONETS Wi-Fi Bridge VAP11G.
It lets you connect LAN device (i.e. printer with LAN port) through wi-fi with your router and use it in the network. I planned to use it with my old printer hidden in the wardrobe :)
The installation process ran ok, but VAP11G_SETUP.EXE was displayed on the processes list in Windows Task Manager, but it didn't work.
After searching Vonet’s support page, I have found that setup program do not support 64-bit Windows! It is compatible with 32-bit Vista and Win7 only.
Fortunately I have found solution, which works for me.
- Uninstall WinPcap and VAP11G_setup (Start - Control Panel – Programs - …).
- Download:
- Install WinPcap first, then VAP11G_Setup_5.0.30.4 (it will tell you that WinPcap installation will be aborted, as you have aleready installed the proper version).
- Restart your Windows
- Disconnect you Wi-Fi (click the icon in the tray next to the system clock, select your SSID and click disconnect)
- Connect VAP11G to your computer via LAN and USB ports – you should notice that orange led in VAP11G is blinking now
- Go to the WinPcap folder (usually C:\Program Files (x86)\WinPcap) and run “rpcapd.exe” – you will see a black window with some information – leave it opened and DO NOT press Ctrl+C !
- Now you can run VAP11G_Setup from your desktop and follow the original instruction
If you see
some errors just ignore them and try again. Some steps are possible to do in 3rd
or 4th attempt.
If you found it useful, please consider some donation ;)
thanks ... works fine. also with windows 10
ReplyDeleteI found a another work around. Installed WinXP in vmware workstation and birdged the guest ethernet interface to host ethernet interface. Connected vonet's LAN cable to host ethernet interface. USB devices work as passthrough in vmware. The setup ran fine in guest winxp and it configured vonet device without any issue. Blue lights are blinking! =)

Brilliant! Works. I needed to turn on and off the VAP11G after step 8, as it wasn't appearing in the list, but worked perfect after that. Thanks for uploading this.
ReplyDeleteworked fine on windows 8 x86
ReplyDeleteThanks
Funciona perfectamente en cualquier sistema configurando desde un navegador web, enchufas el RJ45 y conectas el USB. Pones la ip 192.168.254.254 con el usuario y contraseña "admin" (esta informacion viene en la parte de abajo del VAP11G)y una vez dentro localizas tu red y le pones la contraseña, guardas y listo!! . Yo lo intente de mil formas con el software de la marca pero no funcionaba
ReplyDeleteTHANX! WORKED FOR ME!
