A6100 on Windows 10
I tried installing in Windows 8 Compatibility Mode but the PC cannot detect the device. Anyone know of a temporary fix until final release of Win10 and drivers are made available? Thanks, all.
1. In device manager, click on the 6100 and choose update driver, browse my computer, let me choose which drivers, and uncheck show compatible drivers
2. Select Realtek Semiconducter Corp (use the 2nd one down on the list - there are two in a row)
3.On the right side select Realtek 8812AU Wireless LAN 802.11 ac USB NIC Version 1027.4.1120.2014 (use the second one down on the list again with the driver date of 02/17/2015)
4. Ignore the warning message and install it anyway
5. Should Work for Windows 10 Now!
I have checked my desktop and Realtek 8812AU Wireless LAN 802.11 ac USB NIC Version 1027.4.1120.2014 isn't an option for me. I have Win7 now, but I did have Win10. I had to uninstall after A6100 Adapter wouldn't work! Anyone that might have another option would be great!

It should be in the list under that name. If you go back to 10... try doing what the guy said that posted...it's important that when you pick the driver that you are looking at a double listbox... manufacturer on the left and actual version on the right.
