I have had this issue for a LONG time now, but I only now decided to find a solution for this issue.
So, whenever I download games from steam using my 5 GHz connection, it almost instantly loses connection to the internet and causes a couple of issues on my PC, such as all usb ports shutting down. Reconnecting does not work and all my devices are unresponsive.
At this point a restart is the only way out.
I can however download the games using my 2.4 GHz connection without issues. Although very slow.
My brother has the exact same wifi adapter as me and he has no issues with it, our drivers are all updated to the latest as well.
Any help would be appreciated.
