A6210 Windows 10 Anniversary Update

[sneekez]

Hello,

Has anyone been able to get the A6210 Adapter to work with Win 10 Anniversary Update (14393.10)?  I have tried everything I know to get this to work and no joy.  It worked well with 10586 all iterations but not the new update.  Your suggestions would be more than welcomed.  Thank you Bob

Hi all

Finally i have found a solution.

Install the latest A6210(AC1200) Netgear driver (v1.0.0.34), ...plug in the WiFi adapter.
Let you frustrate one more time (...not found message), press "cancel" and exit the driver installation. (do not remove the WiFi adapter).

Open "Device Manager"
Expand "Networkadapter"
Right click "802.11ac Wireless LAN Card" select "Properties"
Click on "Driver" Tab.
Click on "Update Driver.."
Click on "Search on your computer..."
Click on "From a list of device drivers..."
Click on "NETGEAR A6210 WiFi USB3.0 Adapter Version 5.1.22.0 (21.04.2015)" and press "next"
The correct driver should install now.

Connect to your WiFi Hotspot and have fun again.

I have spend some hours to solve this.
Problem is the wrong WiFi device driver (Microsoft) is selected after the Win10 anniversary update,
and the (Netgear) software driver installer cant change this in the actual version.
So please fix this Microsoft/Netgear.

Bye all

As I experience a true allergie to this crappy OS I did not update nor recommand!

This trash is just for tablets not for business, such as CAD!
