sierra 306 not working with windows 10

Since I installed windows 10, my sierra 306 aircard does not "wake up" properly when the computer goes into power save mode.  I have to close the sierra program and re-start it every time.

Thanks DarrenM.  I tried as you suggested but there were no updates for USB from my manufacturer.  I think that I should just be content with a "nuisance" glitch.  At least I can successfully connect to the internet with Windows 10, which is better than some posts I have read.  I think that manufacturers of devices are a bit behind in making their products compatible with this new OS.

My Sierra 306 has magically started working properly and reliably.  I think Netgear must have done an unannounced update to make it more compatible with Windows 10.  Now all I need to do is figure out how to close my Netgear account !!  No answer has been offered from the Community.
