I finally bought and put my first desktop together, after a bit of searching I thought that the http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4389486 was the best wireless card to fit in my budget. Most places I looked offered far more 5 star reviews and always had a great over all rating.

How ever I come to this tiny problem, I can't get it to work well at all. My laptop sitting next to me is getting full strength wireless with 30Mbps from speedtest.net, buy my PC is getting No Activity, Weak, and Low signal folled by at most 2Mbps from speed test. I have boosted it to anywhere from 5-12Mbps by adding and using Connectify.me (turns my laptop into a Wi-Fi hotpot) on my laptop to be able to get some signal.

Does anyone have experience with Sabrent, or more so, this card? I really need help any but of information would be amazingly useful. Thanks in advance.

Don't know if this helps but bump.

I have lurked here to solve multiple problems but this is the first problem i've found that I can't seem to fix by one mean or the other. Sabrent has closed it's phone line and cancled my Tech Support Ticket with them.

I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. Please help me.
