NETGEAR A6210 is not found?

I am currently using a windows 10 pc and just this bought this adapter 3 days ago and arrived yesterday. i was setting it up today, so i go ahead and put in the cd and then click setup and it begins the process, untill it says insert your adapter into a usb port. So i go ahead and do that but it keeps saying it cant be found? I am so far very upset with this adapter and would not recommendit.

Re: NETGEAR A6210 is not found?

I have a Tivo Roamio connected to an HD antenna in my home office (not connected to cable in the rest of the house).  I've purchased a Netgear A6210 recommended by Best Buy to connect Tivo to my wifi router.  I've run the installation CD, also installed latest drivers from Netgear downloads.  No light on adapter and I keep seeing "Netgear adapter not found."  

I next plugged the new adapter into usb on my computer.  Same result.  I have a different Netgear adapter on that same PC (router is 70' away) and my wifi connection is fine for my PC.  But no joy with the Tivo.  Any suggestions?  Did I get the wrong type of adapter?

Hi drjack,

 

The adapter only works with Windows based OS computer. It may not be compatible with your TiVo.

That's helpful.  Thanks.  So I've now installed it on my computer in place of the small Netgear adapter.  

 

Is there a Tivo compatible Netgear adapter?

Hi drjack,

 

If the TiVo has ethernet port, you may try checking WNCE3001 or WNCE4004.
