I have the Archer t9e tp-link card installed and ever since I upgraded to High Sierra it is slow as hell. 10.13.3

I mean we're talking less than 5 megabits per second with a Google speed test. Sometimes it's under 1 megabit

I don't have any drivers installed because it's supposed to be supported by Mac OS and I'm not really sure what to do myself but it does not work for me like it's supposed to and a lot of other people are complaining about these cards being very slow in Mac OS but not when they boot into Windows which is what I'm experiencing. It flies and Windows 10 which is very sad. 

 

Is there a confirmed issue with these cards. This thing costed me over $70 bucks and seemed to work fine in Sierra.

Did you check your wifi details? I got the  TPlink T8E that uses the same BCM4360 chipset and works flawlessly both in windows and High Sierra 10.13.3. 

 

Remember that to check wireless behavior first is necessary to look at  Signal / Noise data,

Fast downloads not necessary means stability on wireless. Windows and Mac OS can be handling intermittence differently and so results can vary.

 

Whats your downloading speed and latency in windows using speedtest? & OS? (to compare apples with apples)

And Signal / Noise over system reports...
