A-Link WNU(m) USB Adapter Is Very Slow?
Jul 18, 2012
I recently bought a A-Link WNU(m) USB adapter to replace my unnamed unknown wlan thing i had scavenged off an old HP machine. The installation and configuration went fine and windows shows full bars of signal. However, when i ran a speedtest i noticed it was slow as %&/(. The download speed was 0.50Mbps, but on my laptop and with the old Wlan thingie my speed was 7.00 Mbps.
I have tried changing the WLAN channel three times. I have set my wireless to 802.11g only mode, and i have changed the USB port once. The packaging says that the thing has wireless data rate up to 75MB at 20Mhz channel, and 50m range in an office environment. The router is approximately 5 meters from the computer and there is one wall in the way.
Is there something i can do or was my first mistake purchasing a USB Wlan adapter?

I have recently bought a TP Link wireless usb adapter (TL-WN727N). Initially I had some issues with drivers but solved that and my internet was working perfectly for around 2 days. However recently the internet speed has dropped down to extremely low speed periodically for no apparent reason. I can be downloading something at around 700kBps one moment then only have 100B/s the next. [CODE]

I bought a new Alfa 1000mw adapter for the good range, and I've picked up several new signals...but the problem is the speed of my connection..It can be fine one moment at 4.5mbps and then drop down to .16 mbps in a matter of minutes. Usually once it drops it doesnt go back up until I reinstall the drivers..I have Win7 ultimate 64bit.

TP-Link TL-WDN3200 Wireless Dual Band USB Adapter
started functioning really slowly. I'm confused why one day it was fine, and the next the speeds went down dramatically. My wired internet connection is fine, any other device that uses the wireless behaves normally. I'm on channel 1 so I'm pretty sure there are no interrupting signals; maybe it's a fault with the USB?

I have a problem concerning my Netgear XET1001 85 MBit/s Wall-Plugged Ethernet Adapter. My personal computer in my room is connected directly to our router and I'm getting arround 14-15Mbps download speeds. My parents computer is located in a different room and I bought them the Netgear Adapter thinking this was the most effective and simplest solution. Better than a Wifi-Adapter. I cost me quite a lot too to be honest. The problem is my parents are getting speeds of 0.05Mbps and the browser often doesn't even load the pages completely. To me it seems like the data can only travel through the thing very hardly if at all.
We thought this might have to do with the age and RAM of our computer. (512MB of RAM) So we bought a new one a couple of days ago. Turns out: nothing has changed.
The Wall-Pluggs are connected directly to the outlet by the way. I'm trying to give you the most amount of information I can think of so one more thing might be important. Yesterday I brought my parent's PC into my room, connected it to the Wall-Plugg and got speeds of 5Mbps. Although this is better, it's not what I bought this thing for. Even a WIFI connection would be faster would'nt it?

I have bought a Engenius wireless adapter because the Verizon FIOS router is in the other room and it is not practical to run an Ethernet cable from my PC. The supplied router is a UltraLine Series 3 9100EM Router, and the wire less adapter model is a EnGenius EUB9801. The signal is fine with every other wireless device inside my place.

I just brought this belkin wireless usb adapter N150 and it is giving me slow download speed. I checked on Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test and it gives me 0.20 mbps it is not going to the max my max is 3.00 mbps it is not the wireless usb adapter because i checked on another computer and it went to the max 3.00 mbps and i putted it in the same location as my computer so than i realised that it was my computer that is giving slow download speed and it can't find much connections.

Recently my desktop has experienced very slow download speeds (~0.11 Mbps), however the upload speed appears to be in line (~2.0Mbps). These numbers are taken from Comcast's speed test (my ISP). It is obviously a problem with my PC because everything else on the network (PS3, Laptop) have great signals with no problems. I just recently reverted the Desktop back to its factory state, and everything was working fine for a couple of months. The desktop in question uses Vista 32-bit and the Belkin Basic USB Wireless Adapter.

At one time this D-link adapter was installed on this same computer but somehow the drivers got deleted.I am trying to reinstall. The computer is running Windows XP Professional. I downloaded the driver from Dlink's web site and unzipped the files on the computer.The Ethernet Controller shows up in Device Manager with the yellow ? so I right click it and the click on Update Drivers. But when I tell it to install the drivers a window comes up saying it cannot install because it cannot find the necessary software.

I have a D-Link wireless adapter (DWL-G122) that I have been trying to install on a Windows XP computer. After various uninstalls and reinstalls of the drivers and programs that come with it, I have found currently the best way to get it to work is leave the D-Link programs uninstalled and have Windows install the driver itself.The problem is, it doesn't seem to keep the drivers on restarting, so every time the computer is restarted, it must be installed again. This is not ideal.It occasionally worked when I installed from the CD, but the D-Link programs that would install with the drivers created problems of their own.

Both the integrated wireless adapter in my PC and a USB adapter work fine and conect automatically to my D-Link DIR-615 router. I have the integrated adapter disabled in the control panel. Just bought a D-Link DWA-140 Rangebooster N wireless adapter. This finds all the networks my older USN adapter finds but at greater strength. When I click on connect to my own network I get the enter network key box. I enter the correct key, but get an error message telling it's incorrect. I revert to the older adapter or enable the integrated adapter and I get connected automatically.

I have a D-Link DWL 520+ on my motherboard I can't get the wireless adapter to gain the IP address. I have tried to reboot and uninstall and reinstall, and repair. I have tried the hardware manager and several drivers from around the world (all being the same). Again the adapter can see the internet and connect with my router but it will not pickup the IP address. How do I get the wireless adapter to see the IP address?

I recently bought the D-link DWA 556 wireless adapter. I tried installing it but the computer couldn't find it in the device manager. I tried 3 different slots and I had the same problem each time.
I called tech support and he said that my motherboard must not be compatible with the card. I don't think this is the case but it was the only advice he could give me. I have an MSI P67A-G45 board. I removed all drivers from my previous card before installing the DWA 556 because I heard they can clash with each other.

i have a desktop with a wired Ether port, and want to use the DIR-655 to access the wireless LAN used by the rest of my household. this should be possible, right? i've seen discussion of the DIR-655 as a bridge and repeater, but can't figure this one out?

I ran a speed test with my new DIR-655 connected to my PS3 and my download is 768kbps and my upload is 1.5mbps. However, my internet connection is 50mbps and 2mbps upload on my computer connected via LAN. While I understand SOME decrease, that's slower than the previous Wireless G router that I had.
I've reset the router twice and it's currently set to the factory defaults. I've even tried setting a static ip address for the PS3 and put it into DMZ mode. However, I'm still getting the slow speeds.
Also, my iPhone 4 is getting about 14mbps download and 2mbps upload. Is that expected?

When I connect through my router, GMail, Livejournal, Yahoo and Facebook and some other sites are really slow, especially Google and Livejournal. If I connect directly to the modem, they are fine. I've reset the modem to factory and it's still slow on both my Vista PC connected with a cable and my GF's Macbook on wifi. I clear the cookies regularly, use CCleaner, scanned for adware, viruses. What do I do?

Just got my fiber Internet 100/100mbit and connected it to the D-Link Dir 655 AP. I only get about 30mbit out of it. I've scanned and tried to change to channel 1, 6 and 11 with no luck, same speed. There is no electronical devices between the AP and the PC. When i go into task manager in Windows, it says i'm connected to the ap with 130mbit. I got the latest firmware.

I have been using a TP-Link wifi adapter for last two months, It worked flawlessly till a couple of days ago. It just so happened that i turned on my computer and even though the wifi connections were available, when trying to connect this message keeps showing up " Windows was unable to connect to UoC WiFi". I have tried everything from making a new wifi connection to changing usb-ports
FYI I use the same wifi connection on my netbook and android, and they are working fine, so it's definitely not a problem with the ISP.

Recently I bought a TP-Link WN822N and I had recently had this annoying problem with my adapter suddenly it disconnects but it mostly happens when I'm gaming so I'm clueless what the problem is. I tried to change the channels in my router in case it was any interference but no luck there. I also checked if it was just my "internet" but the internet went smooth. Also I did watch over the connection and it did suddenly change name to another one. It was the same network but it change to NetworkProfile, ain't sure if that's the problem though. I also tried to install a new driver over and over but no solution. My old adapter was just fine and there was no disconnects there before I got an upgrade which didn't seem to be good investment because of the disconnects. The disconnects can happen between 10-20 minutes before it occurs.

I have a new wireless router (new network, entirely). I used to get intermittent "network access denied" messages. Now, I get intermittent connectivity loss: "No internet access." I typically just right click and troubleshoot. The problem is solved and I get the following message: "Problem with wireless adapter or access point." Once fixed, things go on well for a random time (never more then a day). Then, however, they just fall apart.

I have recently bought a wireless N 150 usb Dlink adapter, i have installed the software and have conected it to my router using WPS (I do not know the passphrase). The adapter is working excellent but when I added the adapter, my old SSID (Dlink) got switched to Dlinkelb7. Dlinkelb7 has full bars when the old Dlink only comes up so often with one bar. Since the switch of Dlink to Dlinkelb7 my xbox 360 adapter has a very hard time connecting to Dlink and it will not connect to Dlinkelb7 because it needs a passphrase. My router is also Dlink Model DIR-615.

I have just bought a D-Link DWA-160 A2 network adapter and it is really slow.I have been using a D-Link DWA-125 N 150 A2 for a while now and it is faster, getting a higher signal.My new network adapter is suppose to be faster.The only thing I can think of is that the software coming with the adapter never installed. I get an error: Wireless adapter not found! insert the adapter now.Thing is, the driver is installed and I can surf the internet.I did some speedtest net tests and I see that my DWA-125 A2 is faster.

Yesterday, my linksys router broke down suddenly. I went to the store and bought a new one, a d-link DIR-615. After plugging it in and setting it up, i tried loading web pages and it worked ok. It wasn't as fast as my linksys router but it was fine. When i tried loading youtube videos, that wasn't the same story. The videos didn't load. It started playing but then stopped after a couple of seconds. When i connected my computer directly to the modem, the videos loaded fast. There seems to be something wrong with the video streaming.

I got a new DIR-655 RevB today, and set it all up. It works fine right now in terms of speed, but certain websites (specifically, facebook.com) load very slowly on wireless. I've tried on two computers with different browsers / operating systems and it still loads slow. I also have comcast which I use a linksys router with, and it loads instantly. Connecting through wired works. Also, I get no slow down when connecting wirelessly if I use a VPN. When I do a speed test, I get my full speed, so that's not a problem.
A few things I have tried:
-Changing the wireless channel
-Disabling QoS
-Disabling traffic shaping
-Changing DNS servers
-Transmit only N/G
-Reducing MTU size
-Disable Dynamic DNS
-Disable advanced DNS service
-Connect to facebook through SSL and not
-Turning router off and on again
Also as a side, unrelated problem, whenever I enable a few ports to be forwarded, I can't connect to the internet when either wired or wireless?
