For some reason whenever I try and launch games on my HP dv6 the laptops display turns off about 30-90 seconds after opening the game. My computer gets fine fps in the short amount of time I can play it, and I'm pretty sure it's to do with the temperature. I've tried using an external monitor...

Heys guys, i recently moved rooms in my house causing me to be quite far from the modem, and unable to remain using an ethernet cable. Just curious which would be better, a WiFi extender or a wireless network adapter for my PC The 2 I've been looking at are here(price isn't really an issue)...
