I got this wireless card less than a month ago, and it had been working fine for most of that. Last week it began slowing to a crawl, and now can barely load pages, if it loads at all. At some points the speed picks up for a short amount of time. All other computers and devices in the house connect just fine, loading videos and games with no problem. I've no idea what it could be. Any help?

Im also in the same boat, though I found that the only thing I have noticed to get this working again
is to open the ASUS PCE-AC68 Utility and go to the ADVANCED tab and check or uncheck any of the three options.

enable beamforming/enable Turbo QAM/enable interference mitigation

After the "progress wheel" have stoped the speedtest.net site
give me full speed again.

Though, this is rather frustrating, I get by the problem now.
Anyone with a better solution for this?

Out of curiosity, what frequency are you guys using? the 2.4 or 5? I use 5 on mine but for everybody else in the house they use 2.4ghz. I had to completely unplug the cordless phone for my family. Also we have a baby monitor that uses the 2.4ghz frequency as well. That thing interferes with the signal from the router tremendously. As for me on the 5ghz frequency, I get no issues at all.
