Laptop - Acer Aspire V5-552G-X414
Router - Asus RT-N56U
Modem - Arris DG860
Wifi Adapter - Atheros AR5BWB222
ISP - Time Warner Cable, 20/2 Mbps
Devices Connected - 2 Iphones, 1 Kindle Fire, 1 PS4, 1 Desktop, 1 Laptop
No Error Messages
Problem: Laptop won't connect at full speed UNLESS I uninstall driver and reinstall. Then it will connect at 20Mbps until I close the lid or restart the computer (I think, not sure on when it slows back down). It slows down to what looks to be 3-4Mbps every single time. It shows no error message and no reason as to why it slows down that I can tell. Device manager shows no problems. Desktop is also ran on wireless through a different adapter and never loses speed, so I'm fairly certain its an adapter or windows problem with the laptop. I've tried original driver and updated to most recent driver and still does this. I've turned off automatic update of driver in Win8.1 also.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
