Hi I've just finished my first pc build and everything is running fine, however my internet is running really slow on it. I was just wonder what the best usb WIFI Adapter would be around £30.

 

Thanks

Did you install the wifi drivers? Did you compare the speed with another device and if so what's the difference when running a speed check?

Right, I thought you had onboard wifi on that pc. You probably have a very old wifi 22 mbit wifi adapter then. Yes you would need a replacement then. I've had good experiences with the ASUS USB-AC54 on laptops before. If you need more signal strength, use one that has an antenna on it. There are plenty of good adapters out there. Make sure they are AC or AX devices though.
