Netgear A6150 USB wifi adapter stops working and gets hot
Hi,
I've been using my A6150 WiFi adapters for a few weeks now, (I have two installed on my IBM PC compatibles with Windows 10) and I noticed one stopped working this morning.
I pulled it out of the USB socket, and it was uncomfortably hot to touch. After I put it back in, it started working fine.
It sounds to me like a firmware bug, so is there any updated firmware available for these?
Has anyone else noticed this overheating behaviour?
Thanks in advance,
Roger V.
