Hi!

Whenever this one guy's computer is in use, suddenly the internet starts being choppy. I can't play games because I DC and I can't watch streams because they are extremely laggy.

He is using a mac, I do not have access to the mac. I reset the router, didn't help.

Does anyone know how to fix this? It only happens when he is using his mac.

EDIT: I just asked him about the DCs and he said it happens to him too. It has happened the last week or so since he got his computer back from the repair shop. The only thing they changed was his hard disk.

I asked him if he is running any special programs and he said no, so I'd assume he isn't running a P2P app. This problem came right after he just got a new HD. It's not like he has many programs either..

We don't have any other wireless lan adapters to test with.
I'm thinking now, since his HD got replaced. Maybe he needs to just redownload the driver or something..? Meh.. cant find anything about that online.
