Surface Pro 3 Slow WiFi - 72Mbps Max (driver)

If you look at administrator events you will see several events for services crashing/stopping when you turn on and off the wireless. I have seen better system stability web you turn off the Device Setup manager service.

Ok Thank God I bought this through Best Buy which has a return policy of 45 days when you have spent enough money at their stores.

Going to return it...

Going to get a Mac book and bootcamp it instead.

I don't normally post on this site but figured with so many people having issues I'd post a relatively easy fix that lets you get back the power management options - install the HyperV feature which then gives you access to change the level of the wifi on battery/powered. I too just recently purchased a Surface Pro 3 and was considering returning it as well but I'm better now.

I noticed having issues watching twitch streams on anything higher than medium and set out to figure out why. Came up to this and then this blog post http://photosofarkansas.com/2014/07/09/070813-power-management-and-wifi-issues-on-surface-pro-3-a-way-to-get-a-more-consistent-wifi-connection/

I kept my tablet on balanced and changed the wifi performance to medium power saving which stopped the hangups on twitch streams for me. Obviously you can set it however you like but installing Hyper-V will expose all the power saving options to allow modification.

I already try this and didnt work for me. If the computer goes to sleep i still loss wifi connection. Also this disable connected stand by...I think connected stand by works better than enabling HyperV

So I re-installed September Marvell drivers cause I couldn't take it anymore. My download speed from local server jumped from 2.5Mbs to 19Mbs. I tested downloading a 6Gb file. It was consistent 18.8 rate. Substantial difference. Can be better though...
