Okay, at work at the moment but I RDP'd home earlier and disabled beam forming & airtime fairness and I haven't had any complaints from the people at home yet... So I think that's the wifi problem solved.
I've already had a read over that guide before making this thread but I'll have another read once I've finished work and see if there's anything that I missed.
