I have un-installed as per the instructions and reinstalled without the antivirus being on. I have used the genie i haven't used the genie. I connect for about 5 mins and then I get the exclamation mark and no available Internet which i know is pants because as soon as the net gear drops and i activate the onboard cr*ppy wifi I have a signal and am able to work. As i said in my earlier report this morning something is seriously wrong. It worked on 8.1. It worked briefly in win 10. The MicroSpark did something in February which killed this antennae. I also note that the current problems stem from last Friday. Interestingly both dates were the 6th of the month when MS does the updates. I am using standalone for now but i don't know how long that will last as i have now connected to my PC directly into a USB2 port. Another thing just in case this might help is my antennae was connected to the stand. Now i have uncoupled it it seems to have worked. But I also had this items directly connected in a usb3 extender which is powered. Could it be that the bases are faulty or people are using usb 3 extenders?

OK i have done a test. If you plug teh antennae directly into the usb3 extender no go. the antenna isnt recognised. If i take if out and reinput to my uSB 2 connection it works.
SO something has changed to not make this work with a usb 3 extender in one of teh recent updates as it worked for me perfectly in January through to the 6th February, then from mid February to last Friday.
I dont think that the extender is broken as everything else attached to is works fine.
