I have an Intel compute stick with Dual Band Wireless AC-7265 adapter connected to my ASUS RT-AC68P on the 5GHz band with an AC connection. I had to do a lot of setting changes on both the router and adapter to get what I have now.
The Win10 computer is behind the TV in the living room which is <50ft from the router behind one wall. The link speed constantly jumps around from 780 to 290, but mostly hovering between 580 and 390 Mbps. Throughput on the LAN is ~150Mbps symmetric.
1) Why is the link speed so erratic? The only other wireless stuff in the house is the 5GHz phone and a couple of cell phones.
2) Why is the throughput so low? And it seems to be pretty much the same no matter the link speed at the time.
