So here's the deal:
I have a awus036h wifi usb adapter,i had it for a few months,maybe a year and during all that time it worked perfectly,as fast as you can expect from this adapter.
but a few months ago it started to go slow,terribly slow even failing to connect sometimes.
I haven't made any significant changes to my PC and I'm pretty sure no one is stealing my connection,if i try to download anything it stops downloading after a few seconds,also Ive noticed that it goes even slower if i am doing something else example:if i minimize a game to take a look to a walkthrough.
I'm not sure if this is a problem of the adapter since my usb ports aren't working properly either,i cant use any mass storage devices,the PC detects them and i can see whats inside but if i try to move anything it freezes and sometimes i have to restart my PC,but if i use something else via usb,say a wireless controller it works fine.
i have used malwarebytes,mcafee total protection and others and nothing seems to work.
I have tried other adapters,and tried to connect to other networks,and while this problem persists no matter what i do a friend can come to my place with his laptop and connect to my network without any problems...
PLEASE HELP,IM GETTING DESPERATE.
note:I'm not sure if this post goes here or in the hardware section,but since what i truly want to fix is the adapter i think this is the right place to ask.
