Help. My wireless adapter came with a small circular wafer. It has the product name on one side and a shiny film on the other. What am I supposed to do with it?

Download the newest drivers from Asus’ website instead, and stick that CD in a drawer and forget about it for 20 years.
This makes me feel old and I’ve never even used a driver cd
This must be a troll post right?
You need an electronic microscope to read the asperities at the surface of the wafer. They code for 0s and 1s. NOTE THE WHOLE SEQUENCE without any mistake (you might need a few notebooks).
Then type that in a binary editor, compile and run the resulting program to install the drivers for the wireless adapter
That is a CD which seemingly now stands for “Completely Dysfunctional”
Worse yet its a MINI-CD (“Man I’m Not Impressed”)
The amount of people taking the bait in this thread. *face in palm*
This is supposed to keep the road next to your house safe.
Just knot a string on it and hang it from a bush or twig near the road.
You are supposed to put the aide with text on your desk surface and place your drink on the shiny side.
this is for the nintendo game cube, common mistake op.
It’s a coaster for your coffee cup and beers.
It’s a ring. Collect and wear all 5 and you’ll summon The Lord of Disc Drives.
“**small circular wafer**”
I’m scared… I don’t see a meme tag… but there is nostalgia, so I’m hopeful.
its a communion wafer. eat it to become part of the pcmr. (disclaimer: don’t)
It’s a complementary coaster for your cups
Honest question, can disk drives *read* the tiny disks that come with peripherals? I’ve never tried.
Also, I will continue to put my blue ray drive in every single computer I build until my dying days. *just in case*.
Congratulations on getting a free frisbee with your device op.
It’s a shaving mirror in travel size. Marketing genius actually.
I can’t believe how many of you don’t know what this is. Obviously born around 2000. I’ll educate you. It’s a coaster for your drink. But it must be a fancy drink. Like a Pina Colada.
Apply directly to forehead
That’s your disk with 600 free hours of AOL internet.
It’s a branded frisbee
Trolololo
It looks so shiny, it must have cost a fortune. Maybe they accidentally included it. Most likely some top secret project that slipped into the packaging.
I always loved that smaller cd insert part for driver discs, I don’t even know why.
When needed, flip the wafer over to the shiny side and look into it. You will the reason for all the shame and disappointment you’ve experienced in your life.
A drink coaster. Have not seen one of them in a while.
In a pinch you can use a cd and a wifi antenna to get an extra bar in some situations
Perhaps it is a mirror to check the proper install orientation? Is it food?
mmmm the forbidden shiny donut
Put it around your penis.
It’s actually a coaster, companies used to send these in the mail as ads.
