My wireless internet connection is amazingly slow on only one of my computers in the house. In total, there are 3 laptops, 1 computer, 1 tablet, and 4 phones connected to my wireless, and 1 computer directly hooked up to the router via ethernet cord.
Using one of the laptops (stationed right next to my computer), I ran a speed test. The resulting ping, download speed, and upload speed were 10 ms, 10.49 Mbps, 0.66 Mbps. I ran a speed test on the computer, and the results were 21 ms, 4.71 Mbps (sometimes this value is around 2 Mbps), and 0.65 Mbps upload.
On my computer, I use this to connect to WiFi: http://www.dlink.com/ca/en/home-solutions/connect/adapters/dwa-160-xtreme-n-dual-band-usb-adapter
There are no viruses on my computer as far as I am aware.
With such low speeds, I often find myself unable to stream videos at 1080p on YouTube, play games due to lag spikes, and Skype with friends. This is extremely frustrating, and any help would be very appreciated.
Computer Specs (not sure if this is relavent or not):
CPU: Intel i7-2600
MoBo: BioStar TZ77b
GPU: Nvidia 650ti
RAM: 8 GB
OS: Windows 7 64 bit
