Only thought I have at the moment is whether you have any other connection to a router enabled and/or did you configure the drivers in the network and sharing thing. Beyond that, not sure what to suggest. I have used dlink , netgear, alfa, engenius all pcie cards and had to go through lots of re configuring whenever i moved one from one build to another. not sure why i ran into the issues with the pcie cards , but i was able to resolve them all, over time though. the card you have seems to be a good one. I have this same board now, but also had the GA790 ud4and 890fxa ud5 and never got the pcie card to function exactly right the first time. always something, which is why i have at least 6 or 7usb adapters from the longest range, dlink, netgear as well to tide me over till i got the internal ones to work. i no longer use the pcie wifi in my own builds but do for other people and so far, they are still working after 2 , 4 and 5yrs. from g, n, and dual .good luck though
