Try reorienting the > antennas on the AP in different directions (polarization) The same problem occurs when the signal is over 85/100 (for the rtl8812au NIC) and 45/70 for the Intel one, so I doubt this can be attributed to low signal. Of course signal strength is not the only indicative parameter, as noise can also affect the connectivity, but for the rtl8812au case the measured SNR is practically 1/0. Anyhow, regardless of whether the problem is physical in nature, I would like to perform some checks to make sure that the software part is fine. What could a good tool be in this case? I was thinking of something that can allow me to monitor the TCP traffic to see if there are any congestions/bottlenecks somewhere.
