I downloaded the 1.0.0.18 software from the A6200 page and unzipped it. Copied the folder to the desktop and ran the executable setup file with "stand alone" in the filename. This I found installs the driver only and not the Genie app. I have never used or found a use for the Genie app and have encountered few problems with NetGear products which I attribute in part to not using it. Connecting to my R6300, I pulled first 468 mbs on the Windows Network and Sharing Center. I am running Win 7 64 bit on a Dell Latitude E6510 and the wireless security is WPA2 Personal. It appears now that the speed has settled at 526 mbs. I saw higher, but it did not last long. I am 35 to 40 feet from the router with two walls in between. So far so good, I am going to run some speed tests to see what I would pull for speed from my NAS which is a gigabit network device.
