Again, I see no obvious problem. Until someone else jumps in, you might try shutting down & restart your router & machine.

Open a Terminal (Ctrl-Alt-T), copy-and-paste the following command-line, then tap Enter...

Code: Select all

echo "options rt2800pci  nohwcrypt=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rt2800pci.conf

Reboot.
