    MBP 13" touchbar + Boot Camp + Windows 10 wifi issues

    Both 2.4ghz and 5ghz wifi connection works fine in OS X but when I boot to Windows 10 via Boot Camp I am getting issues. Connecting to 2.4ghz would result in really slow internet speed and I am not able to connect to 5ghz at all. What should I do?
