Unstable Connection/Disconnects every few seconds
When I am talking with my friends and playing video games, my connection lags out every 15-20 seconds. I've tried everything and am lost about what to do now. I've changed power settings so it won't turn off my adapter or USB ports to conserve power. Ive removed and readded it to my list of devices. All I can think of doing now is reinstalling the drivers, but I had this problem a few months ago and it didn't work.
Any suggestions?

Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with wireless adapter products and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this router forum.
