For some reason, whenever I attempt to connect to wifi the Archer T3U Plus is not being recognized as a USB 3.0 device. I have installed the latest drivers, and tried everything but don't know what to do.

Hi, thanks for posting question here.

May I confirm that you connect your Windows 11 PC to 2.4GHz or 5GHz wireless network?

It is suggested to connect to 5GHz wireless network to confirm whether the adapter can be recognized as USB 3.0.

  @Marvin_S I am using windows 11 version 23H2. Using your advice, yes it is now being recognized as USB 3.0, yet it is much slower than if I connect it to a 2.5GHz network and it also constnatly disconnects to the 5GHz network. Then, when I attempt to reconnect I keep gettitng "can't connect to this network." Some other times whenever I try to connect to 5G, the T3U plus keeps switching from USB 2.0 to USB 3.0 and back in an infinite loop, rendering the 5GHz network almost unusable. Whenever I do get the 5G to work, it sometimes crashes my driver for some of my USB ports.

 

Edit: I have managed to get the 5G network working, but now it's unbearably slow. USB ports are working fine

  @lighting1171 which version of T3U do you have V1, 1.60 or 1.80?

 

Did you try to install different driver?
