Recently upgraded a load of stuff in an old PC which I hadn't used in about 9 months but I seem to be having issues with the wireless connection. Just wanted to ask if there is anything I should try before replacing the network card, or which network card is best for me to buy if I do need to replace it.
The current card is about 5 years old, it's an Asus PCE-Nh3. I got the driver for it and installed that. The new motherboard is an MSI z370 PC Pro. At the moment the card seems to work fine for a few minutes after I restart the PC, but then drops to 1mb/s or less after that, and will occasionally drop connection completely for a little while. My laptop connection is fine so I know it's not the connection itself.
If I do need to replace it then the budget is as high as it needs to be within reason. The hub in this house is on the floor below me, and it has 5G and normal connections available (although I'm not entirely sure what that means admittedly but it's not my hub, I just know they're both there and give slightly different speeds). If you need any more information just ask, and thanks in advance for any help!
