Archer T3U Plus - dropping pings

Bought brand new, installed drivers from the supplied disk, had issues immediately so found and upgraded from the TP Link site. Network frequently drops momentarily if you do a ping you can see it chokes every 4th or 5th ping either timing out completely or responding with like 3000ms response time. Windows is up to date and works perfectly fine with ethernet, just I need to move this PC into another room where there isnt any ethernet.
I have an Archer A7 router/AP with 2 RE300 mesh extenders which have 3 bars of signal, all other devives seem to work pretty well on this network.
I always seem to have issues with USB wireless adapters, frustrating!
Can I tweak some settings somewhere?

Good day,
Thank you very much for your time and patience.
For the home router, is it Archer C6 (EU )V2?
If yes, please have a check of the message box.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Kathy!
I am having trouble with this adapter as well.
My config is :
- Windows 10 with latest update
- Latest driver from the official website
2.4Ghz mode works fine but having connection issues using 5Ghz mode (ac only). Tried it in ubs 2.0 and 3.0 as well, 2.0 looks better but still not perfect.
Also I am using an Archer C6 (eu ver2) rooter.

@Col777 I have the same problem since I bought the T3u.
The only solution I found that really worked for me is going into your CMD as administrator and type:
netsh wlan set autoconfig enabled=no interface="Wi-Fi"
It blocks all the other Wi-Fi around you and my ping is very stable after I do this.
The only annoying part is, is when you start your pc/laptop again you have to enable it again and than disable it again manual in CMD. Otherwise it wont find any Wifi, including your own.
netsh wlan set autoconfig enabled=yes interface="Wi-Fi"
It doesnt seem like much work which it isnt. But it gets a little bit annoying to do this everytime you restart your pc.
If someone else knows an better solution, please let me know. :)
Best of luck everybody!

I just register to say this is only correct answer on Win10 (latest version).
I've tried all drivers (beta, unsigned, only ac...). Nothing work.
Tried this command and now it works (with any driver, any mode).
FIX this issue... it's getting annoying to type command everytime!

I solve this problem very easy, sold this adapter and buy from different brand.

@Kathy_Z could you send me the new driver? It's really impossible to work like this, why do you release this product with this poor performance.
