Hey Guys, I just recently built my first pic in YEARS. Never have dealt with Wi-Fi like I am now. The room my computer is in unfortunately has no access to ethernet so I went ahead and spent a few extra dollars and got a motherboard with Wi-Fi built in. MSI edge Wi-Fi (link below). I've noticed that my download speeds on my laptop are typically far superior (20 + mb on steam and battle.net average) then my 5 through 10 on my desktop. I have a single Google AC-1304 access point placed in the center of my home. Computers literally just 20 ft down the hall. I was wondering if you guys think my issues are due to a slightly poor connection, they only gave me two dinky antennas for the back of the motherboard. Are there any recommendations where to start with this issue? Thanks everyone!

PS sometimes I noticed my computer boots with 5 gigahertz AC connection, and other times was 2.4 wireless N
