Hi realdead_man,

 

Is your issue resolved already?

Welp.

 

Win 10 anniversary (1607) update breaks WIFI HOTSPOT

 

 

Nothing I can do to make it work again short of a version rollback.

 

PS

 

Netgear has THE **bleep**est drivers I have EVER tried to use.

 

Always get some kind of error, preventing installation.

    Hi realdead_man,

     

    Uninstall and reinstall the driver of the adapter. If you are getting error message when uninstalling, please post the error message or take a screenshot.

        Hi realdead_man,

         

        If you are having the 1605 error, I would suggest contacting support and inform them about the error message you are gettings.
