Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi USB Adapter constantly disconnecting

Good Day,

My Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi USB adapter keeps disconnecting and will not reconnect without unplugging and re-plugging the adapter.  Windows 7 Enterprise OS.  I have disabled RunSwUSB, Unchecked "allow computer to turn off this device to save power" in devmgmt.msc; disabled USB Selective Suspend settings in powercfg.cpl and set compatibility mode in Processes to Windows 7.  Still losing internet connection every 45 minutes or so.  Nighthawk powers off and I have to unplug and replug adapter into power outlet.  What am I missing here?

Hi @albmark

 

Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

 

Does it still detect the WiFI network when issue re-occur? 

Have you tried moving the adapter to a different USB port?

Please uninstall and re-install A7000 stand-alone driver.
