    Wifi adapter driver issues


    I recently upgraded to windows 10 from windows 7 (rip), it works fine until i try to connect to wifi. I put in the password and i freeze, it takes to a blue screen saying PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA, as well as

    What failed: A6210.sys

    I googled it and it was a problem with my wifi adapter, the main solution to it is reinstall the drivers. But some people are saying that you shouldn't install from netgears website becauseit can permanently remove windows 10's ability to see available wifi networks. A family member of mine is offering to give me drivers from his pc with internet onto a usb and download onto my pc. I want to make sure im getting them from the right place.
