A6210 Wifi Adapter causing BSoD
Hello, recently I've started to encounter blue screens when using my wifi adapter, and seemingly only on certain wifi networks. This started to happen when my apartment upgraded the wifi to wifi 6e access points, and ever since then I have been unable to use their internet without crashing. I tried the hotspot from my phone and had no issues. I am running the latest drivers, and windows 11, whereas the latest drivers seem to only support windows 10. The error I get on the bsod is DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION, and the image name is a6210.sys, which I believe to be the drivers for my wifi adapter. I've done a full reinstall of windows also. I've included a copy of my two most recent blue screens dump file. Any recommendations on how to fix this? Any help is appreciated!

I wonder if it could be related to this:

then:

Different symptoms, but might be worth trying the same solution.
For other ideas, did you try this?
