Hi, having issues with my USB wifi adapter (chip is realtek RTL8192SU and installed the appropriate driver).

When not connected to a network, I'll hear the chime for USB plugged in/pulled out repeatedly over and over again until I unplug the adapter. When connected to a network, sometimes it will die out and become insanely slow until I unplug adapter and plug back in.

I've tried both checking and unchecking the 'allow computer to save power by turning this device off' option. When on, I get the first issue of the chime. When off, I get the second issue.

Can anyone help or enlighten me on what's wrong?
