AC600 T2U Plus is disconnecting in Windows 10 (freezes/lags in game)
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I had huge lags/freezes in Overwatch game.
Then I realised that T2U Plus USB card is getting disconnecting.
So I used USB Tathering from my phone and I had 0 lags.
That means It's T2U Plus issue.
What I tried already:
- disablind driver updates in Win10 (preventing drivers overriding)
- tested official drivers and drivers brought by Windows update
- setting Power plan in Windows for maximum performance
- disabling selective suspend for USB ports / USB devices / T2U Plus card
- testing T2U Plus in different USB ports (USB2.0 and USB 3.0)
- different wireless modes a/n/ac, ac, b/g/n.
- disabling IPv6
What I didn't try yet:
- testing T2U Plus in different PC/Laptop
- testing with different OS / different Win 10 version
- use usb extension cable (USB port overheating theory)
Adapter model: AC600 Archer T2U Plus V1
MOBO: MSI B450M MORTAR MAX
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
OS: Windows 10 Pro (v2004)
Please, help

1. Lets say it is happening every 10-20s. I live in Hotel. Router must be somewhere near me. Signal is great. Like I said before - I don't have any lags and any problems while using my phone's USB Tathering.
2. I'm unable to change it. All options that I have in Advanced settings:
AdaptivityPara - 0,
EnableAdaptivity - Auto,
HLDiffForAdaptivity - 7,
L2HForAdaptivity - Auto,
QoS Support - True,
Roaming Aggressiveness - Disable,
VHT 2.4G IOT - Enable
Wireless Mode - Auto
3. Yes. My girlfriends is sitting near me, playing same game on laptop without any issues. When I'm using USB tathering I also don't have any lags. If I will be able to switch between 2.4Ghz and 5GHz that would be great. Unfortunately I have no idea how to change it.
4. I'm not getting any messages. In Event Log for this device I don't see any errors/warnings. All I can see is that WIFI icon in tray is changing for "Globe" when I have "freeze" in game. After few seconds connection is coming back and I'm dead in game.
5-7. Skipping.
8. Driver version: 1030.29.1102.2017, Date of driver: 18.07.2018
OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro N (10.0.19041 Compilation 19041)

SMBIOS: 2.8

Adapter was bought in online store. Sealed with foil. New one. Issue started from first minutes of usage. I belive it's Driver issue.

Update:
Router is located about 4,5m from me. One wall between us.
Like I said before - signal is great, Zero problems while using my Phone with USB Tathering.

1. I'm using WIFI connection. Not mobile data.
2. It's probably ZyXEL NWA1123 AC Pro, dual band.
3. If I'm not playing device is not disconnecting. If I download large files then device might disconnect many times while downloading.
I will try that driver tomorrow.

@Masakrator I have the same problem. Router in the same room, tp-link router actually.
It has been the same problem from the start but in the beginning I could both use it for 2.4G and 5G but then the 5G stopped working.
I changed the channel (46) on the router so my ac600 could find the G5. Fixed.
But I can not keep a steady connection on teams or zoom nor when I play online games.
I have tried both 2.4G and 5G.
The speed of my connection is above 150mbs so it should not be a problem.
BUT when I use my phone USB tethering it is not a problem.
I have used the link above for static tplink. It might actually have sped um my connection 10-15% but did not fix the big lag problem.
Please help.

What is the model number of the TP-Link router?
This is the latest public driver for the T2U adapter, please try to install it manually on the computer and see if it helps:
https://static.tp-link.com/2020/202006/20200601/00015960-RTLWlanU_WindowsDriver_1030.38.0712.2019_Drv_3.00.0032.L.zip
Please remove all the drivers for this adapter on the computer, install the above driver manually: https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/920/.
BTW, you may run a Wi-Fi analyzer on the PC to verify which channel is busy and which is clear for the 5G and 2.4G network, then choose a clear channel on the router, change the 2.4G channel width to 40MHz, and 5G to 80MHz on the router, then reboot both the router and the PC to confirm.
