So my wifi won't connect any faster than aboout 4 or 5mbps to our uverse internet.  My wifes laptop, and both our phones get full speed.  I've done a ton of research but haven't found a fix for this issue.  It has the Qualcomm Atheros AR956x card in it.

 

So far I'veshut down the antivirus - no change

made sure windows can't turn the device off to save power - no change

I even pulled out the card to make sure the connectiions weren't dirty - no change

 

Does anyone have any other ideas?  Also, is there a better card that will work in this laptop?  If I can upgrade it I'll do it.
