A7000 Dongle issues?
I bought this adapter about a month ago but I’m having nothing but problems first I had to use the version.10 drivers because the latest.15 won’t connect to my ex800 extenders without continues shutti...
I don't have this adapter but I've read that a clean install helps. Here's a video on youtube that walks through the install.
Thanks for the reply I followed the video installed the .15 version Driver’s and it connected properly first time, it certainly looks better I will have to see if it shuts down again. Why don’t NETGEAR do something now in another new update I was considering sending it back and refunding so will others if they don’t know what to do it’s seems like a well known problem solution on YouTube. Posting a download link of the direct .15 version drivers would be better than doing nothing at all.
Have your speeds increased? I know you stated you'd post back about stability. Thats awesome to follow up on as well.
If this does fix your problem, mark the solution so it goes to the top so others can easily find the solution.
- I was just testing all three direct drivers it does seem the .15 works the best but I’m still testing too see if it shuts down under heavy loading 5ghz I will report back soon as possible so we can give the solution.
- Connection has not seemed to off dropped since but I still want to find out if it drops connection under heavy loading 5ghz download speeds 30-50MiB/s which it was doing all the time.
