Any update on the A6200 genie issue for windows 10
Hey guys, I've been checking round the forums and i haven't found any recent commments on whether the issues with the genie disconnecting has been resolved, I know about the stand-alone's but some of...
I think its borderline criminal that Netgear has not done anything to formally adress this issue. Their support team should go on "dancing with the stars" because they would suely win! Anyway, I went far beyond anything that has been previously recommeded here when I was able to get two other vendor's drivers working with the A6200; however, they both exhibited the frequent disconnects that everyone is still complaining about. FYI, the reason I was able to do this is because there are 6 other adapters that use the same Broadcom/Skyworks configuration; however, none of them offer a Windows 10 driver. And, btw, the Netgear driver is dated from 2013 so that's why I tried the other vendors drivers (which had later dates).
Anyway, its game, set, match for me. I just threw mine in the trash. I should have listened to all the complaints before I bough this unit; however, I was hoping I could be one of the 40% that could actually get this working but I ended up in the 60% "frequent disconnects club" instead. No bigge... I'm movin on...
Cheers!
