I have had this trouble and after searching several forums found an easy solution. Download driver from Mediatek where the A6210 is called MT7612U. Then uninstall Netgear Genie and then plug your dongle back in. In device manager install new driver manually and install Mediatek driver dated 28 Oct 2017 (5.1.22.0). It has worked for me.

Olddie's solution did not work for me. Still waiting for an update to the driver that actually works. For now the adapter is useless.
