Ok, got a Windows 10 box which needs to be connected by Wifi (ideally I'd connect it to the wired network but it's not in a convenient place to do so). I don't want to use powerline networking.
Ideally use the 5GHz band but the problem I'm having is seeing what adapter to use. Practically every model I've looked at has turned up driver nightmares when trying to use it with Windows 10 with Windows updates breaking connectivity being a frequent problem.
Does anyone have any thoughts on models which just work? ... or would I be better getting something like a BT AC1200 WIFI Extender which has a wired port and linking the machine to that so I don't have to worry about Wifi on Windows at all (i.e. just use it as a Wifi bridge) ?
For reference this would be connecting to a BT Smart Hub (Homehub 6)
