You obviously have tunnel vision because your adapter works; however, more than 50% of us cannot get the adapter to work. At this point, it is not obvious as to why many of them do not work and Netgear has made no attempt to address this issue formally but they do keep selling them without any remorse. I don't understand why they don't start asking some simple questions like:
To the many who have A6200 adapters that don't work on Windows 10:
Are you running Win 10 x32 or x64?
Which version (ie, Home, Pro, etc.)
And they could ask many more specific questions to try and isolate "why some work and some don't."
But don't just assume the Ops is bad just because yours works!
Anyway, I threw mine in the trash and I bought one from another vendor that actually works!

there you go . Its bad adaptor.
I happens. Few products comes as bad. Nowadays sampling is horrible and nothing is tested to working.
I run on 64 bit 10 professional.
i did installed a beta version of genie/ driver and even before it was working fine.
So i guess its bad abt the adaptor. I knew the win 10 support was not there for long time but the beta driver works now.

There you go with that tunnel vision again. That link to the beta driver is old news. Everyone has tried that already. So, why don't you go over to newegg and read the reviews for Win 10 users? Or just browse this forum for that matter. At newegg you will find that over half of the reviewers could not get the A6200 to wrok properly. Most of them reported the same issue of "frequent disconnects." So, are you saying that over one-half of the A6200 adapters made were defective? And, if so, why hasn't netgear recalled them? Do a little research on this issue before you cry "bad adapter" agian please.
