Windows 10 2004 A6210 Constant disconnects waking from sleep and extremely poor performance.

Windows 10 2004

Asus 270E gaming

i7700K

 

Hello the last 6-12 months this A6210 usb WIFI has gotten worse and worse with windows 10. Im not sure what update does it but there is no difference with any driver version.

After waking from sleep WIFI will be disconnect on a regular basis and all web pages are extremely slow or just gives me an error, cant open page. Usually a restart fixes it but the performance does seem slower.  I doubt there will ever be a fix from microsoft as windows just gets worse and worse so i hope you can update the driver. I am currently using A6210-Standalone_V1.0.0.39

    Do you have Windows set to turn off the device to save power?

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers about your hardware, in the appropriate section for your device. That's probably here:

      Thank you for the quick reply. Im afraid any of the standard answers ive seen work. . Its not allowed to turn it off and everything else is at high performance. As for the placement of the topic oddly  It would not let me choose any other section than the 3 nighthawk ones after several attempts but i see placing it directly there to begine with does work.

        That's not "the standard answer". There is no such thing. It is just one thing to investigate.

         

        If it doesn't work, then I'd still delve into Windows.

         

        To get more help you will have to be a bit less cryptic in the information you provide.
