My.netgear.com and contact support

For some reason, even though my card is registered, I have a username and provided a password, I can not login when requested, when attempting to contact support through email. Even after resetting password 3 times. I get a "Your password was invalid, please re-enter your details or click 'Forgot your password" error each time.

Anyway, I sent to chat for support, which I avoid if possible since I have 10 thumbs when it comes to typing. I was able to get a rep quickly explained the dropping issue I was having. BTW, since my last post, I had 2 drops one after 1lmost 12 hours of continuous service and a second after about 1n hour.

During chat, the tech had me install 1.0.0.26 drivers, go into >device manager >system >Network adapters >double click on a6200 >select Advanced >scroll down and select Maximum Power consumption and change it from the (default) Enabled to Disabled >click OK and close. Once back on line I was asked to monitor it for 12/24 hours. It has now been 2.5 and I'm still connected.

Hopefully, all my issues were configuration related and that simple toggle takes care of things. Will update progress in coming days.

Thank you, jmizoguchi, for pointer and thanks to "Cathy Lyn" at chat support for quick response and hopefully a solution......
