wifi card troubleshooting

Hi guys, so a couple of days ago some friends and i built my setup. After installing windows and all necessary drivers, everything was working fine for about an hour at which point the wifi started acting up. Its data receive/sent would spike up and down extremes and eventually fall to 0...when downloading, the download starts but right before it finishes, it freezes (e.g 5.0/5.1mb). Steam and skype think im offline and dont let me sign in even though i can use chrome (intermittently) and it shows i have full wifi signal.

It most definitely isn't my router as I have multiple other devices connected which run fine without any hiccup.

The wifi card that I am using is the one included in the ASUS MAXIMUS 7 Formula and its drivers are up to date.

I have no idea how to fix this problem...

throw it out, get a cable.

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.
