Stuck at 54Mbps
I setup my R6300 a couple months back and have been using it in conjunction with the N900 USB adapter and getting pretty reasonable speeds. I recently got the A6200 adapter and connecting to the same...
I'm having this exact same problem...this is really weird, all the issues on this forum, are exactly what I'm encountering with this WiFi Adapter...
When I first connected this Adapter moving on up from the WNDA4100, the speeds dropped from 3.0MBps down/200KBps up to about 2.5MBps down/ 300KBps up....then a few short hours later, my new WiFi adapter, this here A6200, decided that my speeds to drop even more, lol, and now my downloads are at 300KBps from 2.5MBps......HUGE drop, nothing has changed since the moment I plugged it in, maybe just moved it from USB slot to USB slot, but still....nothing at all has been switched in the advanced options or any of the sort....I wonder why the speed decrease and why it's now capped at 50-72mbps.
Also, when I first connected it, and downloaded big files at 2.5MBps, it would disconnect about every 15 minutes....then one time, it finally reconnected and is now stuck at 50-72 Megabits per second.
Any idea why this might have happened?
I'm on Windows 7 x64, by the way.
