A6200 Windows 8 support
Any one get this to work on windows 8? Just installed the OS and it sees the device but doesnt install the correct drivers for it. The blue light doesnt even come on...

I had to run Windows 7 over 8 just to get better compatibility with my netgear A6200. And now even on windows 7 the adapter will fuck itself up leaving me with NO internet connection and a windows networking troubleshooter. Again having to pull it out of the USB port and reconnect it.
Save yourself the frustration and don't buy this shit.
Thanks NETGEAR, and your techies that can't make a fucking driver.
Do not use the latest drivers for this adaptor. Use the driver that came with the unit.
The new one does not work. on bootup or wake from sleep you have to manually pull the adaptor out of the USB port and reconnect it. This is a known bug that NetGear knows about.
