I think the closest one to me is right under my room. Is a WEB6000Q a router? It's says Wireless Network Adapter when I search it up so I assume it is.

It looks like a wifi extended. Is it wired directly to your modem/router from the isp?

How can I check if it is? There's a thick yellow cable coming from the wall that connects to it and there's a yellow cable that connects to the modem so it might be connected to the modem.

Yea that seems like its conected. Try unplugging it and see if the connection gets worse.

Should I unplug it while in a game or before?
