Hello, let me explain my situation.
We live in an apartment complex and there are 3 desktops that connect to the router. On an evening we were experiencing extreme lag which we determined was due to traffic on the channels.
We bought a router that can use 5ghz and also 3 new compatible adaptors. Installed it, worked just fine on 5ghz.... for a day. Then the signal took a dump and ping was between 700 and thousands on all pcs.
Rebooted the router after reading forums and seeing this as a common issue until reboot, and it was fine again. Signal took a dive again a day later, rebooted again. This time only 2 of the pcs were getting the speed, and the other one was barely getting any (no more than 1gb/s). Rebooted, that PC was fine, the other 2 were under 1gb/s. Rebooted, and they all switched order again. Finally got all 3 working, again just for a day until the signal took a dump, now I cant get more than 1 PC (the same one this time every reboot) at max speed.
Switched them onto the 2.4ghz, works fine. Back to 5ghz, nope nothing, clinging to connection for its life on 2 of the 3 PCs.
All 3 are using identicle adapters, 15 feet from router no walls, and are set up identicle. Channel is on auto as is the frequency (have tried 20mhz, 40mhz, and a variety of channels).
Does anyone have any idea? Thank you
