I have a problem with my TP-LINK WN821N which had a problem with the connection stability. i went into a game of League of Legends and started having connection problems high ping frequent drop outs. it had never occurred the first time I played a game with it but the third time it had these issues. I ran a pingtest and was unable to test the packets and there was a ping in the 200+. My router is a Netgear EMTA CG3000-1STAUS

ps. i am unable to access my wireless router to change its settings

I run windows 8.1 if it matters.
