Let me start out by stating that the router in use is a Linksys E3000 with the most up to date firmware for it (v1.0.6) and I pay for a 12Mb/s 1Mb/s connection and it is located downstairs in my home. It's currently set to Auto channel width and channel for both 5GHz and 2.4GHz settings with WPA2/WPA Mixed Mode security.
There are 3 of us that currently live in my house and one of my roommates who lives upstairs uses a laptop with a USB wireless network adapter. Any time he connects laptop to our home network the entire network slows down from ~15-20ms ping 12/1 connection down to ~1.8k-3k ping 2.54/0.15 speeds.
Without this laptop connected to there are zero issues, we can have 2 apple tv's going and the other 2 roommates gaming comfortable on pc's with no noticeable drop in speeds, yet the moment this laptop connects it goes to shit. I gave the guy upstairs a wireless network adapter that I've used with the same router/modem for years and the issues still persist whenever he connects.
I've done countless google searches and forum crawls to attempt to fix these problems but I can't find anything that seems to work with it. If someone could point me in the right direction to find a solution to this that would be great.
