Netgear N300 (WNA3100)

I recently purchased this item in order to gain internet access for a new computer, it works perfectly for short amounts of time then either disconnects repeatedly or starts to have horrible performance (eg 200+ ping in online games) Even when performing badly it still shows it as having full signal strenght and decent download time. Are there any solutions that would allow me to keep a consistent internet speed?

    Hi JB123,

     

    Uninstall the adapter and reinstall it using the standalone driver. Download the latest driver by visiting the support site.
