Hello everyone.

Basically, I am a massive noob in all this so sorry for mis-understanding, if there is. I find that there is a problem with my internet connection every now and then. My signal bar usually shows from 3 to 5 bars connectivity but I still get problems. Skype doesn't load, internet is incredibly slow, the main game that I enjoy playing, League of Legends, keeps on disconnecting me. I tried to trouble-shoot the adapter but it came up with nothing. Tried rebooting the rooter- no use. Used a different adapter- even worse so decided to stick to the original
My Wireless Adapter is "REALTEK RTL8191S WLAN". Can anybody please help me out?

Have you run any speed tests to check that it isn't a problem with the ISP or telephone exchange? Try http://www.speedtest.net but don't accept any special offers for so-called PC speeding-up software.

Also, it's worth changing the channel the router broadcasts on to match the one the wireless adapter receives. If they're both set to Automatic or to the same channel, it takes some of the guess work out of it.
