Weird internet issue with adapter.

[Spenlard]

So I normally use a little usb wifi adapter in my desktop and it vastly improves download speeds compared to the one that came onboard with the motherboard. With this I'm able to get 30 mb/s or so, which is awesome for me. Normally I get around 5 with the oem wifi chip. Well now randomly, it won't work properly. So I have it connected right now, and setup through the REALTEK USB Wireless LAN program as I type this. I can use sites like youtube, LTT forum, etc. But with discord, Uplay, steam, and so on I get nothing. It won't even connect. When I disconnect it and it shoots back to the onboard it connects right away. But as soon as I reconnect it, boop. Kicks me right back out. I bought a year of Norton because I was convinced by a computer shop I had a virus...needless to say, I'm an idiot and it changed nothing. I just absolutely cannot wrap my head about what could be causing such a weird issue.

 

It works for basic internet function/browsing, but nothing else. Really odd. Before last night it had been truckin' along fine for months with no issues.

As soon as I check the box for "Disable Adapter" we're back in business. Which is cool and all, but I want my fast download speeds back :(.
