Ihave been sent here by support to post this because they refuse to do anything, even though i see there is MANY post regarding this issue already and NetGear hasn't done anything about it. Yet as the support representative says that managers always read this and take action. i have seen no action taken with all the post regarding same situation.

All this together changes the way i see Netgear completely.----Not sure if you talked to netgear as their support is only free for the first 90 days. After that, its paid support. Most of the consumer networking gear uses this model as its expensive to run support and most people try to use it as their own IT department (not saying you were. Just explaining why they've switched to this model)


So there is no manager that actively reads these as thought, and mods are rare that have no ability to escalate the issue either.----There's mods on here but they tend to be more active on the more expensive devices (like orbi or readynas forums)


What did you mean by highlighting the issue you just meen posting it here right?---It does help to have on here because the more posts they see about the same issue, the more likely they are to consider it a systemic issue and looks for updates versus thinking its just a single persons issue.


That was a legitimate question. Too often people turn up here after doing a web search for "Netgear support". They get sucked into scam sites that have nothing to do with Netgear.They just want your money.


People have lost money and have had their networks compromised by these crooks. That is why people like @plemans try to warn anyone who might have hit these scammers. When we spot them, we also try to let Netgear know so that it can unleash its lawyers on them.


As Windows 11 is the ONLY windows that is NOT end of life, there should be ONLY Windows 11 devices for sale at major retailers such as Best Buy unless CLEARLY marked that they are for Windows no longer supported.


If a device manufacturer does NOT release Windows 11 drivers that is usually indicative that the device in questions does not fully work in Windows 11 (as I have experienced with this bad device purchased at Best Buy).....


If you check the product pages, you will see that the A6210 is "Not available" from Netgear. It does not sell this wifi adapter, but it has no control over the stuff that sits in warehouses and stores around the world.


In my case, I went for PCIe add in cards that support 6 GHz. Not from Netgear of course. Other 6 GHz devices have been know to cause grief in Windows 11. We had a spate of people turning up here blaming Netgear routers for not working with 6GHz wifi. It turned out to be an Intel issue
