so replying to you, when i connect to wifi i use the windows wifi icon, and yes sorry, i typo alot and was somewhat in a rush atm so i didnt read over my message) and ive already tried other solutions many of your moderators have asked like "just unistall and reinstall the standalone driver" i have also tried restarting my router, restarting my extender. also to awnser your question, my brother has a hotspot as well, but his supports hotspotting Wifi as well as 4G, he hotspots wifi. i connect to his, and i said before, any hotspot apperntly works just fine. ive noticed many other users share my problem and i have tried darn near every solution, besides buying a new one, which i probably will buy a diffrent brand of adapter if this one is just faulty straight out. ive had this adapter for i belive a full year now, and it hasnt had a single problem up till recently. I understand atm there is an internet attack, and i will wait a few days and if it persists, i will discontinue using netgear and swap to a diffrent brand. also, for extra info my router is Xfinity and my extender is TPLink (which i am very pleased with their brand of products, i have had my extender for 3 years, and it runs like its new. never had a single problem with it. router is about 3-4 years because we swapped from AT&T to Xfinity becuase it was much cheaper and they gave us huge deals) my a1600 has troubles with connecting, and staying connected to my router and extender, but hotspots work fine.i also do not understand exactly what you mena by it might be my pc, ive never had a problem with it (my pc doesnt have a wifi chip in it, which is why i bought a adapter) if can think think of any other way to fix the adapter, please let me know, if i cannot fix it i will just buy a diffrent adapter. thanks for replying to my post as i am currently working as a band leader and constantly need to talk to the band.with the adapter being weird, its been hard trying to stay in contact with them.

It is hard to follow "stream of consciousness" messages.
