Final Resort: Replace the Adapter
Given that the wis09abgn chipset is over a decade old, its Windows 10 support is unofficial and unstable. If you continue to experience disconnections, blue screens, or slow speeds (only 2.4 GHz b/g/n, no 5 GHz or ac), consider replacing the internal mini-PCIe card or USB dongle with a modern Intel AX200/AX210 or Realtek 8822CE adapter – they have native Windows 10/11 drivers and better performance. Plug the Wis09abgn into a different USB port
Official Windows 10 drivers for this specific model are not hosted on the main Samsung support site, as the device was not intended for PCs. However, because it uses the Ralink RT2850 (or similar RT2870) chipset, you can use generic or alternative drivers:
- Plug the Wis09abgn into a different USB port (preferably USB 2.0, not 3.0, as legacy adapters often dislike USB 3.0).
- Go to Device Manager > Universal Serial Bus controllers > Right-click each USB Root Hub > Properties > Power Management > Uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device".
