Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi USB Adapter constantly disconnecting
Good Day,
My Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi USB adapter keeps disconnecting and will not reconnect without unplugging and re-plugging the adapter. Windows 7 Enterprise OS. I have disabled RunSwUSB, Unchecked "allow computer to turn off this device to save power" in devmgmt.msc; disabled USB Selective Suspend settings in powercfg.cpl and set compatibility mode in Processes to Windows 7. Still losing internet connection every 45 minutes or so. Nighthawk powers off and I have to unplug and replug adapter into power outlet. What am I missing here?

Hi albmark
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
Does it still detect the WiFI network when issue re-occur?
Have you tried moving the adapter to a different USB port?
Please uninstall and re-install A7000 stand-alone driver.
