I've not tested these out yet myself. I spent 30 minutes or so attempting to locate a changelog to no avail. Since I've managed to (in a roundabout way) resolve my USB 3.0 issues, I'll repro that same issue in a VR and try these drivers.

This driver seems redundant if I have A6210 Netgear genie installed.
I ran a Driver Genius scan and this driver (Mediatek RT2870 Wireless Lan Card Driver) popped up to install.
Which I did (is that an oops?)
Do I need it? is it need for my A6210 adapter?
I had a A6200 adapter and this Mediatek Lan Card driver never popped up then.
So this driver is indeed necessary OR I can uninstall it - yes?
Thx

Hello Sethm1
It shouldnt be needed if you have the netgear drivers so its up to if you want to keep it or not if its not causing any issues then I wouldnt worry about unistalling it.

Thanks.
Uninstalled.
Doing so did 'break' (probably not the right term) my Adapter - but a reinstall fixed it.
take care/
