A6210 will not function in Hostednetwork mode

Hello,

 

I've gone through the steps on this tutorial.

 

I notice that there was another post Here that was regarding the same issue, however the issue seems to never have been resolved.  I have no idea why a thread would be closed if an issue isn't resolved, but I am now running into the same issue.

BECAUSE:

 

James told me any hotspot/infstructure functionality is no longer supported.

 

IT will work under windows 10 1511 and before versions, using generic windows driver/maybe netgear driver xxx.36

Hi realdead_man,

 

The fix is only for Windows 10 unable to detect the driver. For hotspot issue, the adapter no longer supports it. The chip manufacturer which is MediaTek confirmed that hotspot is not supported by our drivers."
