Alright, so for the past few days, I've been having some Internet issues. At first, I would get random disconnects while just browsing Reddit or other websites. I have since restarted my router and that issue is now gone. But now, I'm getting constantly disconnected while playing (multiplayer) games. I'm not sure if it happens while playing singleplayer games as well, though I can try it to see if it would help diagnose the issue. I do have the latest driver installed, though they do have a more recent one that's for Windows 8. Not sure if trying that driver would help being that I'm on Windows 7. I haven't change any hardware, I haven't installed anything, so I'm not really sure what could be causing this issue. I do believe that it's specific to my computer because when I get disconnected, my tablet (which is connected to the same wifi connection) works fine.
--------------------------------------
It does indeed seem to be specific to my computer. I just tried playing a multiplayer game (Black Ops 2) on my old computer and I didn't get any disconnects (played 2 rounds). Then I tried Black Ops 2 on my current computer and got disconnected in my first round.
--------------------------------------
I should clarify a bit. The reason why I say that I get disconnected is because when the problem occured while playing Black Ops 2, a few times, I would get kicked from the Black Ops 2 servers and when I checked my Steam friends list, it would say that I have no Internet connection etc. Maybe my connection isn't actually dropping, but I'm just getting a huge, huge lag? I don't know
--------------------------------------
I just pinged www.google.com while playing Black Ops 2. Minimum 32ms, average 80ms, and at times, it would just up a couple of hundred ms and go as high as 1541ms. Here's a screenshot:

And here's another screenshot when I actually lost connection:

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
