I recently put my first computer together only to discover that I hadn't included a wireless card with everything else. I spent a couple days with my macbook running bootcamp connected to the new desktop with an ethernet cable in order to connect to the internet. During that time I was getting a constant 133 kB/s (yeah I know its slow, but thats the connection my family pays for). Finally I splurged and went out to get the Asus pce-n10. Popped it in loaded up the windows 7 drivers and I was off to the races 133kB/s. 30 minutes later I noticed the speeds were bouncing all over the place, going anywhere from 109kB/s to 0kB/s, but not losing it's connection. Meanwhile my lapotp was still able to constantly stay at its max download speed.
I tried uninstalling the windows drivers and loading the asus drivers on, same problem. I've run speedtest on both computers several times, the only thing that seems to be affected is the download speed, upload remains at a consistent .37mb/s whether I use my laptop or desktop. Is their anything I can do to fix this or am I going to have to take another trip to the store to buy a different card, feel free to recommend some if that is the case.
