    The issue? 

    Probably a lack of data. 

    You put AC600 in your title and A6100 in the signature.

    Do you have the A6100?

    What is it installed on? (details, not just "my pc")

    What router is it connected to? 

    How far from the router is it? 

    What are your interior walls made of and how many between the router and the a6100?

    are you testing over the 2.4ghz or the 5ghz?

    What actual speeds are you getting over both?

    How are you testing (app/site/etc)?
