    Probably the wrong password or security type selected when you initially connected.

    What is controlling the adapter Netgear software or Windows zero wireless configuration, assuming you are running Windows.

    In all cases I've found that if you can use Windows to control the wireless then it does it better than the manufacturer's software.
