A7000 WiFi adapter irregular speeds
I've looked through the forums already and I'm not sure what to do at this point. I've had the A7000 for a couple years now. We moved back home and just had them swap out internet router box due to...
Hi,
Can you check your USB power settings for your device? Also check system power settings for USB devices under where you can conrol power (power saving, high performance, balanced).
Also check the USB hub settings for your computer under system devices and see if there is a power management mode for those. I'm trying to figure out whats going on with an A7000 adapter and so far, the two things that seem to be working, is to use one of the earlier drivers, and then also disable any powersaving measures for the USB devices itself (the wifi adapter) and the USB hub settings/including powersaving modes for USB devices.
It's just a hunch - but I suspect - Windows 10 is doing something weird with these devices or there is some configuration issue on my desktop.
I know this is supposed to be a public facing forum but the lack of input from actual netgear employees with any technical/support/engineering background on this forum is just a shame. Its embarassing.
Let me know how it goes!
