Hi TheMustangGT,
1. When you say it turns off did you mean the adapter is no longer detected or the wireless connection is disconnected?
2. Do you have other wireless devices that works fine or have stable connection from your router?

1. I mean that the whole wifi stick turns off and i only see a red cross where the wifi symbole should be. Then it takes up to 10 seconds till it restarts. 2. Yes i have 2 Phones, 2 TV's, and 4 other computers at different times connected to the wifi without any problems. So im a hundred % shure that it is the wifi stick since i have build in wifi with my Motherboard and it worked but i lost my Wifi antennas.
