Bingo, you hit the nail on the head.  The adapter draws more than 500ma, so my computer was disabling it.  I went to Staples and purchased a powered 4 port USB hub and the problem is SOLVED.

 

Many thanks Hanspuppa!

 

Thank you to all who answered and offered suggestions.  It's really appreciated!

I think I have the same problem except previously my Alfa product was working without any issues.  One day it refused to be recognized by all USB ports and cylces on and off when plugged in.  I don't understand why suddenly my USB ports won't be able to support it.  There's a small chance it may have suffered water damage but I am not certain of that.
