A6200 installed - results
I have the R6300 router, and the A6200 adapter installed on a Windows 7 desktop. The R6300 is updated with the latest firmware and located one floor below in my basement and about 50' away. My desktop is the only device connected on the 5G band. Signal strength on the 5G band is fluctuating between 3 and 4 bars. Connection speed is varying and drops as low as 58M and as high as 234M, but seems mostly to stay at 175M. On the 2.4G band, there is a steady 4 bar signal strength with connection speed in the 104-144M range.
Any thoughts on whether this is expected performance? I'm not a network guru, just like having the latest technology. This seems like disappointing performance to me.

try to keep it on single thread. :) - brycehazenInitiateI fixed the issue for myself by using windows default wireless manager.
1. Click Windows Key or Start Logo
2. type services.msc and hit enter
3. Locate and start WLAN Auto Config service
4. Go to Network and Internet, then Network and Sharing Center
5. Manage wireless networks.
Hopes this helps everyone who tired hours trying to fix it themselves like i did.
