HATING to see the 6210 sitting used in a box, I began playing with network setting on my phone and computer.
Running Speed tests and such, wondering about possiblitys with 2 wifi cards.....
For some reason, I plugged in the 6210 and played around with the settings, and my phone WIFI.
All of sudden, I noticed a dramatic bump in download speed with my phone. (The 6210 is faster than the ASUS, cause asus is USB 2
)For some, as of yet unknown reason, the 6210 TOOK OVER my connectify hotspot and WORKS.* OR maybe not.
SOMETHING happened, and my WIFI speed increased, but I have not been able to prove the 6210 IS working.........

Today, I tried a clean install of:
Windows 1607
Windows insider preview "slow" track(don't know build number)
And Windows insider preview "fast" track build.
None are able to start a hotspot. Not with cmd command, the default windows app, or third party software.

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
