A6100 and Windows 10 disconnects frequently
Model A6100 WiFi USB Adapter 802.11ac Dual Band - (got it now?) Software: genie version 1.0.0.12 Driver version: 1030.3.831.2015 Network router is configured for WPA2/AES Connection looks great ...
My apologies for not following this thread more closely. This somehow got away from me - but the issue seems to be resolved, and unfortunately I'm not certain what may have fixed it. Windows updates I imagine, but as to which one, I can't tell.
Which router are you using?
Routers are Ubiquity Networks' UniFi UAP access points
See if updating windows 10 to anniversary 1607 build fixes the issue.
I'm having the same issues. Frequent disconnects. I am on the Anniversary version of Win 10 and I changed the power setting as Netgear suggests. Still disconnects. With my wife needing to take some online courses soon that's not going to be acceptable. When it works, it's great but lately not worth the effort. Is Netgear looking into the issue? It's not just a few of us.
I'm having the same issues with the A6100. After updating to Windows 10 and running the latest drivers 1.0.0.32, it will often disconnect. The Netgear Geenie program will not let med reconnect. Sometimes I can reconnect by using the built-in Windows WIFI selector. Other times I need to reboot, then use the windows selector. No other WIFI devices on my network have this behaviour.
