Hello people from Tom's Hardware.

So I've built my new pc like 1-2 months ago and since then I've had problems with my net.
I've always had 50 mb/s even though I pay for 80 but that isn't really the case.

My problem is that my net drops from 50 to 2 mb/s which you would have to divide by 8.

I don't know what the problem is and I also tried calling my provider but they didn't have an answer.

Most of the times I do get around 50 and I would be downloading around the 4 and 5 mb per second. But getting 2 mb/s frequently is really frustrating.

Excuse me if my English isn't good, and I hope you'll have an answer for me!
Qwizh.

Do you have any special network software? (Killer Network for MSI, I believe the network utility for ASUS is called Network iControl) If you have a network software utility from the motherboard manufacturer, which would be ASUS in your case, then uninstall it.

Thank you for your fast response, yes I do have that utility, should uninstall asus aisuite completely or is there any possibility I can only uninstalled Network iControl?:)
 
I would suggest uninstalling it all. I recommend against downloading anything (Aside from drivers) from the motherboard manufacturer website. All the extra stuff, such as AISuite, is just bloatware, and doesn't have a necessary function.

Well I just double clicker AI suite at uninstalling programs and managed to uninstall Network iControl. I just ran a speedtest and I hit 47 mb/s

Thanks a lot man!
