Hi, I recently purchased a Archer T3U Plus wireless adapter to use in my PC. After receiving the product and plugging it in to an USB port everything was working fine, I received download speeds up to 144 Mbps and my upload speeds clocked out at 100 Mbps. (Our ISP provides us with 150/100 network speeds). (Attaching a screenshot of our network status)

 

However, after following the instructions provided with the device and downloading the newest drivers from the TP link website, the speeds suddenly dropped after restarting my PC. I am now barely reaching download speeds of 40Mbps and upload speeds of 30Mbps. (Screenshots attached)

 

The problem persisted after uninstalling the driver, reinstalling the driver, restarting the PC, Connecting to a different network and switching USB ports.

 

Is there any way to resolve this issue?

Hello @Fitkin49 

If Windows -discovered driver works better on your computer, you could uninstall TP-Link driver from Computer Management>Device Manager>Network Adapter-> right click on it to uninstall driver like Case2 in FAQ blow. Later restart the computer and see if Windows could find a suitable driver for adapter.

I hope that helps!
