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?

Hi everyone,
I found a "fix" that seems to work on my end (on meshed networks).
0. USB 2 connection (3 also works I think, but untested).
1. Beta drivers (Archer T3U_beta_U2_U3_5G unstable issue_1030.22.0202.2018) --> manual install windows x64 drivers
2. go to adapter settings/advanced/Wireless mode and set to the bottom one (IEEE 802.11b/g/n).
Should work instantly without a reboot (not 100% perfect ping though, but better)
