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!
Good thinking creating a VM. lol
THAT should not be necessary!!!!
WHY won't NETGEAR help us???
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
- I was thinking of buying Asus AC53, does it work on the latest windows 10 builds?
