Windows 8.1 - Limited Access or Super slow connection

[lilbanditk]

I just got a new laptop (Asus s400ca) and I've been having wireless connection issues from the start. It originally had windows 8.0. I thought it would change when I went to 8.1. It hasn't. I have tried to reinstall the drivers. I've done several commands that I have seen around different forums. Today was the first time I have been able to access my wireless, however the speed is extremely slow. I went to speedtest.net to see what my average ping was and it was 2238 and my download speed was .17 mps and my upload speed was .13. I compared with wifes computer and hers is running a download speed of 17.6! Please let me know if anyone can help. Thank you.

Here is my ip Config

This is an ongoing problem with this particular Qualcomm adaptor.

The link below shows some possible fixes for the problem but I can't say if they working long term as I don't have this adaptor and have no way of testing this out myself.
