Problems began to arise since the day i got it for the first time.
At home, i have pretty good Wi-Fi (about 5-6 MB/s), a laptop and a PC at the second floor.
My PC doesn't have an inbuilt wi-fi adapter so i had to go find one.
After i plugged it in and installed the drivers and the utility, i realized that i get about 100-200 kbs/s by either plugging it in straight into the computer or by using the stock usb extension cable that came bundled with the adapter.
I tried reinstalling the drivers and the utility but it was all in vain.
To top it, the adapter kept timing out and i was forced to constantly reconnect myself to the internet to be able to use it.
After a while,i gave up and decided to buy myself an internet modem from an ISP that was also a mobile operator.
5 weeks went by and i decided to try my luck again with the adapter.
I plugged it in and surprisingly, i was getting amazing speed.
The next day however, it stopped going over 4 MB and went back to 100 kbs.
I even bought extra USB Extension cables which kinda helped (the speed now is about 250-300 kbs/s) but i still have to deal with the constant time-outs.
I tried the adapter on the laptop and it worked perfectly fine.
So i got this question: is my adapter broken or is my PC not using the adapter properly?

have you tried another usb ports on the PC? and at the same location, does laptop get good speed? also any anti-virus on the PC is blocking the adapter to work well?
