Hi guys!
I've been breaking my head with this issue and I still haven't been able to figure what might be causing, so I wonder if you might have had a similar issue before.
I had 3 devices before, all working with wi-fi connection to the same router, a 3 year laptop on windows 8.1, a BlackBerry Device and an iPod touch. In all of them the internet/wifi connection worked flawlessly.
I changed my laptop for a new one, with an Intel dual band AC 7260 adapter, and since the first moment I used I have not been able to get full speeds. After doing a speed test, upload speed is around 10 mbps (as all the other devices show too) but download speed gets stucked at 1 - 1.5 mbps when I'm able to get 15-20 mbps with all the other devices at the same spot.
If I move the laptop right next to the router, download speeds get to the normal speeds. I've tried changing every single configuration possible that I've found in online support forums, band, frequency, power management, etc., still the same problem. I also tried every single different configuration in my router, with a no go.
I find it completely weird that upload speeds are regular, but the download speed is the one that is suffering.
What might be the problem? I have the latest drivers everywhere and I'm getting desperate about this.
Thanks!
