I just upgraded my parents computer from XP to Windows 7 Pro x64 and spent the better part of an afternoon dealing with their Dlink DWA-130 Rev.A1, after finding a chinese blog talking about it and trying multiple combinations i was able to create a working Marvel 88W8360 driver for this Dlink USB wifi nic.

Now a word of warning, if your VEN or DEV id's are different this may not work, but I can help if yours is off by a tad. I don't know if this is allowed but i'm going to post a link to my driver that i created/modified. I'm typing from the computer as we speak with this driver running. I haven't had a chance to play around but everything appears to be working, and working is better than not working. :)

If this is against the TOS or EULA for the forums, Dlink feel free to nuke this, just trying to help others out.

Hello,

I've been having a lot of issues recently with my DWA-130 Rev.A1 on Windows 7 x64. Frequently, the network adapter would simply stop working after I reboot my computer. Then, the adapter was not recognized by the system even if I connected it to a different USB port. At that point, it usually took many other reboots and deactivating/activating the adapter multiple times to get it to work randomly for a couple more days until the same problem occurs again.

It did the same thing to me this morning. After much frustration, I tried your custom-made driver and it started working properly the first time.

I recommend this driver for any user having Windows 7 and DWA-130 Rev.A1.

It seems to be the only stable solution so far on the web.

Nice work Leonard4!

Thanks,

Can you link with a "n" router at 300Mbps? All I can see are wireless "g" networks.

The driver I made is for 64-bit OS's only. I didn't have access to any 32-bit drivers, and the stock 32-bit "should" work fine.

copy the two dll files from the download. go to your program files and open dlink. past drivers and replace.  :)

Thank you for doing this, my DWA-130 REVA1 is working splendidly now with Win7x64, even on Draft N w/WPA2 encryption. 

Good fix!  Everyone should be using these drivers if they have a RevA1 of the DWA-130
