Wifi Isue Maximus 6 mPCIe Combo card

There is any fix for the cappy Wifi?

The issued card is listed in device manager as a broadcom 802.11ac, but the part name i found is AZUREWAVE AW-CE123H

I had tried 3 clean win7 installs, and dozens of drivers. When i got the full bandwith the latency is crappy, when y got a god ping the bandwith becomes 1/10 of the total avaible.
And always im getting random disconects and lost conections. Download a 100+Mb file is imposible. Cant do any skype call cause it freezes all the time.

I tried connecting a crappy usb wifi card and everythin work flawless. Also my laptop in the same desk has perfect bandwith with 0 ping.

Is his aceptable on a 300+€ Motherboard??

I think no.

Also i had sended a message 2 days ago but get no answer.


Where i can ask for a card replacement?

Hello

The issues you describe are not a common problem with the Combo card. If you are sure the problems you are experiencing lie with the card itself and a replacement card is what is required please request this with the ASUS Customer Loyalty Team for your location.

I had read a good amount of threads abut this. Issue.

What i found points that the fault thing is the card, but any troubleshootings is apreciated.

Another test of the mpcie with different drivers. Ping is improved, but still unnaceptable. Also bandwith is reduced and has much more speaks and lossed connections.

I had switched the wifi card with the one from my laptop and now wifi runs smoth and perfetly

My faulty part is the wifi card, not the mpcie module itself.
