Over the past month and a half (could be longer, but this is when it started bothering me), the internet connection on my desktop has been so slow as to be barely functioning. There are eight computers in the household using our wifi, and I ran the speed test on a few. The Mac closest to the router, 80.2 Mbps download. The PC closest to the router, 63.3 Mbps. My Macbook (the one I'm on now), 9.8 Mbps.
My PC, a Dell Optiplex 980DT: 0.4 Mbps
Hardware info: My network adapter is TP-LINK TL-WN725N. Our wi-fi router is Verizon mo. MI424WR (though our network was bought out by Frontier). My OS is Windows 7 64-bit.
What I've tried so far: Network diagnostics, which didn't find anything. Resetting the adapter and router, still no luck. I saw other threads regarding an AMD Quick Stream issue. My previous graphics card was AMD, so I thoroughly searched the computer. No AMD files, no Quick Stream anywhere, so I've ruled that out.
Could this be a hardware (maybe the adapter) or software issue? My current graphics card is Nvidia, so I wondered if they had something similar to that AMD program. I will continue to try all I can. Any possible solutions would be greatly appreciated.
