If you are runnin win ten anniversary edition or better, nothing I have tried will make it work. Including connectify.
But Connectify is decent software. Had better, had worse.

So "hotspot" is working for you by using Connectify Pro and Windows 10 (1511)?
I wasnt even able to install the latest Netgear driver on top of 1511.
Says device not found, during driver installation, and after being prompted to insert the A6210.
Same as installing it on 1607.
I thought about installing Linux, untill I noticed its not supported. Let alone 802.11ac, let alone creating a hotspot.
One of the reasons why I chose this particular Netgear model is I had gotten the impressonion that its decently supported.
Hell it supports Windows 10, and some of competing hw does not.
Alas it seems I bought a decent piece of hardware with the sketchy software support. Then again its Mediatek chip, what did I expect.
