A6100 on Windows 10 stops working after booting

I have the latest A6100 driver but this is what happens:

 

- I boot the laptop with A6100 plugged in

- The wifi icon on bottom right of the taskbar shows full signal but no internet when I try to surf etc

- I unplug the adapter and then plug it in

- All good for however long I use the laptop, even if I put it to sleep and then awaken it

- Shut down and reboot: start the process all over again

 

Anyone else have the same problem or can suggest a solution?

Hi sban,

 

1. Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver? If not yet, try it but use the standalone driver when reinstalling.

 

2. Do you have other wireless devices that works fine with your network?

 

3. If step 1 fails, try installing it on a different Windows 10 computer and check if the the same problem.
