wnda3100v3 Sudden Highping!!!

Hey Netgear Community,

 

so i recently bought the netgear N600 WiFi USB Adapter, because my last wlan adapter was broken (literally). But since i got this USB adapter, i get sudden high pings especially in online games (like Overwatch or Counter Strike GO). The confusing part is that i normally got a ping between 20ms - 40ms, but there are some sudden pings like 2000ms once in a while, which make it harder to play any online games! I updated the drivers and also tested my connection with another Wlan Stick, which i had no problem with. So i guess there is a hardware problem and i dont know how to fix it.

 

I hope for a quick answer!

 

Cheers,

    Hi Chiakyi,


    Uninstall the driver of the adapter and reinstall it using the standalone driver.
