I've installed Ubuntu 17.04 on my new Asus R518UQ-RH74T. If I use a wired network, it all works great. The problem is when I connect to a wifi network. It works for a while, and then turns slow to the point I can't even open google.com

I've been googling for an answer and tried this, but no success. I've seen there were problems on the past with my wifi adapter, but seems to be compatible since kernel version 4.1).

Anyways, I'm hoping someone can help me get this to work.
This is the result for lspci -vv -s 03:00.0:

Any ideas?

I just tried this steps, and it seems to work now! Hope someone finds this useful!


Actually, it was still failing 'cause I've installed the wrong drivers. When I installed this one, seems to be working fine (Hope this is it). Anyway, if you check launchpad (Version 1.164.1), you'll see this very same issue listed in the changelog.
