You don't say which version of the software you are using. This is the latest:
A7000 Software Version 1.0.0.15 (Windows) | Answer | NETGEAR Support

Visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
That page will also have any software, firmware and drivers for your device, if they exist.

Is this for the USB dongle? Try updating all the drivers, remove the setting that turns off the device for power saving AND purchase a powered USB 3.0 hub and go through it that way.
