Continued internet connection and speed issues

**JustinSane** · 11-19-10, 11:58 AM

So after a couple of weeks every other computer in the house is still getting constant connection and speed except mine, so i 99% sure its not an issue with the ISP. The Belkin wireless interent adapter plugs into any usb port and has worked on other computers without a problem so i'm pretty sure its not that either. My laptop placed right next to my computer using the same adapter got a 7mpbs on the speed test compared to my computer getting 2 mpbs Only thing i can think of would be my networking card inside the computer.

I'v looked online a bit and prices for a new one are all over the place depending on speed and other features. Does anyone have any helpful insight into what my internet problems might be? or do i really have to replace the networking card.

If replaceing the networking card is the way to go could anyone link me to some good ones that are $100 or less? i know next to nothing about these things. Thanks for any help posted and let me know if there is anythign else i need to post to help out.

You could get a usb network adapter and try it out... Those are pretty cheap, and if it doesn't help your speed, take it back. Belkin makes one of those, but I'm sure netgear and linksys also do.
