Hi darrylpluto,

Hi!

I have the same problem as darrypluto, but im on Windows 10. I tried to uninstall the driver/genie and install the standalone driver. 

Run into som problems in the prossess, like my pc didn't recognize the adapter when i was told to plug it in, but i got around it and got connection again.

However it didn't help in regards to the issue when im playing video games, i keep losing connection for 1-2 seconds, then i reconnects back. This is a big issue.

It feels like package loss or something. It was working totally fine for the first 3 months after purchase, it just started 2-3 days ago.

 

- On device manager it says my driver versjon is:  5.1.22.0

- Windows 10

 

Thanks for any help.
