Hello
Same problem that i cant connect to usb wifi adapter when trying install drivers.
It started with no 5ghz after win 10 anniversary update, then i tried to uinstall and then install latest driver A6210_v1.0.0.35 no luck with connecting to usb wifi adapter.
Tried A6210_v1.0.0.34 no luck, tried update from device manager as suggested but name dont change on device, still 802.11ac Wireless LAN Card. It says successfully driver chage but not changing.
Wonder why driver update dont change device name and not update it correctly. I think there a lot of us outhrere looking for a solution for this problem.
Hopefully Netgear will release fix in future A6210_v1.0.0.36 because the solution in forum only works for some people.

Internal wireless on two computers work fine.
Installed A6120. Hooks up to internet for a few minutes then disconnects.
I have disabled the internal wireless devices on both computers.
I have installed on two computers with the same results.
Router Netgear Model R6300v2.
A6120 Driver A6210_v1.0.0.35
I have not found anything that will keep the A6120 connected.
I have tried several fixes found on the Netgear Community pages, of which none have worked for me.
If I disconnect and reconnect it works again for a few minutes then it disconnects again.
I have tried A6210_v1.0.0.35.exe and A6210_v1.0.0.35-Standalone.exe Installations.
During install the device is not detected but it has unstalled. So many peopole with issues and they all seem to vary slightly with the bottom line, Not working as advertised. Sent my info directly to support and waiting for answer. If i get it working I will post what the results and the fix.
