NETGEAR A6150 Internet Connection No Longer Working

Hi,

 

I have been using my NETGEAR A6150 wifi adapter for 2 years on windows 11 without any issues whatsoever. Yesterday I lost connection suddenly and could no longer find any wifi networks. After 15 minutes it found my wifi again, just for it to stop working again after a few minutes. I tried unplugging the adapter and putting it into another USB port but with no success. I also tried sharing internet with my phone to see if the router was the problem, but to no effect. I tried reinstalling the drivers as well but it didn't work. Today it has not been able to find my wifi once, even though the adapter still shows up in the device manager under network adapters. The light on the adapter still works and is blinking in a constant pace (It used to flicker irregularly when it was connected to a network).

 

I'm guessing that the adapter has somehow broken, but I would appreciate any help and recommendations on what I could try before resorting to buying a new one.
