WNA3100M Connection Problem

After trying 7 - 8 times I have installed the driver to WNA3100M N300 USB Mini Adapter and it recognise the router but there is no connection. In a prvious installation I had light in the adapter but it has gone now and that might be the problem. I have tried different USB connections. I am runnning Windows 10 Pro and I have installed the verson 1.2.0.6 which should be the latesy version. I have also removed the Mediatek drivers. I cannot find any more to do. Wkat do I di now?

    Hi sargunner,

     

    Try to install the standalone driver. If still the same, try to install it on a different computer just to isolate if the adapter is faulty or not working.

        I have now bougt another Netgear adapter - N600 -and I have still no internetconnection. This one tells me yhat i have connection to the router - also Netgear - but no internet. I have moved my computer to 1 meter from the router and I have changed channel three times. No connection. Maybe I wil lreinstall Windows 10 but I cannot see how that should help. I had a connection until a week ago but I have not found out whybI lost it. I have contacted the internet provider but I have not had any answers yet. Strange😨
