Desktop Connection Very Slow

I have a newly installed CBR750 modem/router combo. I've had some issues getting some 2.4ghz devices connected, but everything seemed to be working fine until I connected my desktop. The desktop cannot connect to the 5ghz band, and even connected to 2.4 ghz I am getting less than 1mb download and 14 mb upload. I don't know where to start.

        Asus makes a lot of adapters. 

        What one is it and what driver is on it?

    What about specifying the brand and model of the desktop?  Specs for WiFi will be on-line.
