Hello, so I have been having difficulties with the wireless on my desktop. The issue the computer is having is that while it the computer does have wifi, speeds can suddenly come to a crawl with download speeds around 0.5 Mbps according to speedtest. Along with this when I am getting functional download speeds they only really every top off around 18 Mbps when I should be getting near 30. All, the other devices and computers on my network are having no wireless issues and are pulling in download speeds of 26-32 Mbps. So, far I haven't been able to figure out why this is occurring.
The computer's OS is Windows 10 and the Wifi Adapter im using is a Netgear a6200.
I have checked:
The computer gets perfectly good download speeds with an Ethernet cable.
I have uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them for the adapter.
I have purchased a new adapter and still had the same issues with the new adapter as the old one.
I have taken the Netgear adapter and tested it on other laptops which it functions normally on them with download speeds around 24 Mbps.
I have reinstalled Windows 10 and the problem still persist.
I have turned off all my antivirus and firewall on the computer as well.
When i try pinging sites or my home router i have giant spikes of ping. For example, pinging my home router's ip would give me 5 ms, 5 ms, 26 ms, 5 ms, 5 ms, 1 ms, 120 ms, etc.
So, at the moment I am a little lost with what to try next any help would be much appreciated.
