Can't connect to network.

[Mietish]

Everything worked perfectly till 5 minutes ago. I restarted my Desktop and couldn't connect to wi-fi network anymore. My laptops and phones connects to the network and works perfectly but desktop doesn't. It doesn't even show up my home network name. + Even if I get the chance to see it and press connect it just shows limited access and I can't use the internet. What shall I do?

Sound like the Wifi Card might be going out to me. Do you have another one you can put in there and test or test that one in another PC?

No I don't have another card to put in... Now I can connect to internet again but it's kinda slow, too slow compared to my laptop. The desktop has a better network card than laptop but still it's acting weird.

Yea i would try either 1) Updateding the driver for the wireless card or 2) Try testing it in another PC.

What kind of wireless card is it? Is it a USB one? If so you can test it in your laptop. Just install the driver for it and then disconnect from the wireless on your laptop and connect to it using the USB one. Just make sure you are connecting using the right wifi card though to test.

If it's an internal one then yea you can. For a friend who uses WiFi that will let you test it out?

I have internal card... Which I think I will change for something else because today is even bigger nightmare than yesterday. My phone is faster with same wifi than my desktop. + Desktops wi-fi speed jumps up and down all the time. Now I'm trying to download driver which is 268mb small and the download time is 20 minutes and sometimes it jumps to 1hour and back to 20 minutes. I remember earlier when I was living at my old place the router was in second floor and I was in fourth floor and my internet was like flying fast. Now I'm like in the next room from the router and the internet is BAD.

And also the weird thing is that it loads pages fast/good but when it comes to youtube videos and downloads and facebook games it's super super bad.
