My NETGEAR Ac1200 usb WiFi adapter won’t connect to the internet at all. I dusted off my computer and got the WiFi signal but with an X so I connected to WiFi for about 10 minutes then my computer lost connection so I restarted it and I got the computer icon with an X instead of the WiFi icon.
I tried dusting off my computer again and it didn’t work. When I unplug the usb in and out it shows the WiFi icon for a couple of seconds and it connects to internet and then it goes out and I just have the computer icon with the X.
I have the NETGEAR drivers installed but they are a bit outdated. I’m really frustrated as I have no idea how to fix this and this has been a problem for multiple weeks. I’ve also tried a usb hub which dose not help anything.
I have a video I can show but I don’t know how to upload videos. I’m struggling with this and I would like to find a way to fix it. (EDIT) whenever I wiggle the usb I can sometimes get it to turn back on and show the WiFi but it will immediately after a few seconds go back to the computer icon with an X and I will have no internet.
