You know.. where the tray icon has a yellow triangle warning badge, and you can't connect to anything anymore. And I have to unplug the wireless adapter and plug it back in, then everything works again for 5 more minutes.
This issue also happens on my iphone 4 with the wifi connection, and I don't use my netbook very often but I always have issues with wifi on that, too.
What could be causing this sort of thing? I have got this switch connected to my Verizon Fios router, and I have this AP connected to the switch. I got this wireless adapter at Staples today because my motherboard's ethernet adapter went kaput. It's one wall away from the AP. I was hoping since this was the fanciest USB wifi adapter in the store it would at least work correctly until the PCI ethernet card I ordered gets here in the mail.
Not only is battlefield 3 laggy as all hell, it likes to disconnect itself every few minutes. However, it downloads files at my internet connection's max of 30Mbps just fine and web pages load just as fast as with a wired connection. How do I troubleshoot this?
