i am close to the router

Your router has very near full bars. Whats wrong with that?.
I thought you were talking about the other networks.

cat /proc/net/wireless
That will give you some details on the quality of the connection. ‘Link’ is out of 70 and gives you an idea of your connection quality (In relation to Interference). ‘level’ is between 0 and -100, that is your signal strength (Closer to 0 the better)

go to GitHub and get the latest RTL8814AU drivers ,manually install dkms or make,they are modified 8812au drivers if im not mistaken. I have been using the awus1900 for months, and they are ok on range ,but seems to drop out on client associations. oh and sudo iwconfig wlan? txpower 30, works on this.
