A6210 Adapter and Windows 10 version 1709

I am planning on getting an A6210 adapter for my PC which runs Windows 10, version 1709 with the most recent updates.  I note that the latest driver for the A6210, 1.0.0.36 was issued in March 2017,  before Windows 10 version 1709, so may not addrerss  any problems associated with this version of Windows.   I would lke to know if I may run into problems installing the adapter and if so what I need to do to avoid them. 

 

Thank you

    I have a similar Netgear adapter, A6100. It does fine in build 1709.

     

    New builds of Windows rarely have any effect on this sort of thing.

      I am please to hear it works for you.

      Unfortunaely that has not been my experienbce with other adapters.  I just returned another make of becuse it was incompatible with  Windows 10  1709.  Problems were reported with exixting inatallations failing to work after the update, but it was supposed to work with new installations. I want to be sure I will not have a similar experience with the A6210.
