My 5GHz Connection breaks down every few seconds

I have bought a PCE-AC55BT and installed the newest version of the Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260. The problem now is that the Connection with the 5GHz network keeps breaking down every few seconds. I already tried reinstalling it cleanly as instructed, but it still doesn't work properly. So my question would be: How can I make the 5GHz connection work properly?

AHeff2, Thank you for posting in the Intel® Communities Support.

 

In order for us to provide the most accurate assistance, we just wanted to confirm a few details about your system:

What is the model of the motherboard?

If this is a laptop, what is the model of it?

What is the model of the Router?

Is this a new computer?

Was it working fine before?

When did the issue start, since the day you installed the Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260 card?

Which specific Windows* version are you using?

Does the problem happen at home or work environment?

Any questions, please let me know.

 

Regards,

Albert R.

Thanks for the rep

 

The Motherboard is an Strix Z270G Gaming Motherboard.

This is not a Laptop.

We have a Vodafone Station with the name TG3442DE.

The Computer is 2 years old.

I had an older WLAN Card that worked fine.

The Issue was there since I installed it.

I am using Windows 10, Version 1909, Build 18363.900 .

I checked it and on every other device the connection to the router works.

The problem happens at home.

It is working completely fine with 2.4 GHz.

 

I hope that those informations are enough and I thank you in advance.

AHeff2, Thank you very much for providing that information.

 

Based on the information you gave us, there is a possibility that the problem might be related to the wireless antennas, so we just wanted to confirm, did you purchase the Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260 as a kit with the brackets and antennas or did you purchase the Intel® Wireless card by itself and the antennas separately?

 

Regards,
