I'm using a relatively new (~4 months old) Netgear R6400 to broadcast internet throughout my house. Recently, I assembled a new HTPC, which I've been taking back and forth between my place and my girlfriend's. When first assembling the PC and using it at my place a few weeks ago, I was getting a satisfying signal with good speeds over G and AC. Around 4.5 megabytes per seconds download on the G signal, around 20-25 Megabyte per seconds download on the AC signal (I get ~30 wired). After a week of using it in my room, I took it over to my girlfriend's for a couple weeks, and then brought it back. Now I can't even get a steady wireless AC signal, and when it does work, I get under 1 megabyte per second download speeds. Wireless G gets me around 3-4 megabytes download, but the speeds seem finicky and unstable.
Nothing really changed between now and then that I can figure out. To access the network, I'm using the PC's built in wi-fi that is included with the Asrock Fatility Z170 ITX board.
I'm sorry if I'm missing some necessary info. Can anyone speculate what the issue might be? I tried a few different channels on the 5Ghz band and they were all roughly the same - pretty much unusable. That PC is on the other side of the house of my access point. My main PC directly underneath it by 1 floor, and the speeds are about the same as wired, but my link rate was averaging ~850 and now it's about ~700.
Thanks
