What I am able to do is create hotspot inside VM Virtualbox of Windows 10 1511.

Netgear drivers are a no go for hotspot, but windows driver works.

 

 

 

No 5GHz!

    Tired of waiting for updates that don't work anyway.

     

    I think TEN (10) MONTHS was a reasonable time to wait for a fix, RIGHT?

     

     

    Never AGAIN will I BUY NETGEAR.

     

    I purchased an ASUS USB AC53 nano.

    (realtek chipset)

     

    WORKS PERFECTLY, all windows versions, all modes!

     

    $40USD
