A6210 Disconnecting

Hey,

I am accutely aware that this topic has been covered on here, propbably at leangth.

That being so, I am still starting a new thread as none of the advice in the previous chats abvout this issue has resolved my problem of the adapter resetting randomly.

Netgear being how they are, are apparently nearly impossible to actually contact directly and deal with the tech staff and resolve the issues simply.

Previous advice:
Powersaving mode -- disabled.
Drivers -- up to date (netgear provided 10/01/2018 driver)
USB settings have power saving turned off also.

All the while, this thing keeps randomly resetting itself.

Please assist.

Cheers

Have you looked in the section where they talk about these devices?

 

WiFi Adapters - NETGEAR Communities

Wifi adapters and routers don't have much in common so there won't be much about the A6210 around ere.

No, I am trying another method that does the same thing -- Turns off the software to switch from 2.4 - 5g connection.

Please take a look at this one.

Cheers

Yup, sure have. In the laptop.

Does the same thing.

The video linked in a previous reply I gave is what I am currently trying and, knock on wood, it seems to be quite stable.

No help from netgear though 😄

Very disappointing!

Netgear's attention to detail on USB adapters is poor. So much so that I wonder if it is withdrawing from that market.

 

It must be getting on for a year since people first asked for updates to get expensive adapters to work in an Apple OS update. Still no sign of action.

 

As you say, disappointing.
