PC is laggy

Go to solution Solved by G33k 4 L1F3,

Why do you need to use a USB extender? seems a little wierd. if you connect the WIFI adapter straight to the PC, do you still have the problem? if not, just don't use the extender.

 

if the wifi adapter is too big, I have a TP-Link nano 125mbps dongle that is about the size of the usb connection, then my finger nail...more then small enough to connect without issues. and it only costs $10

Yesterday my PC started stuttering and running slow while USB antenna is connected over USB extension cord. I bought brand new extension cord reinstated my drivers and i did not install new software.

PC specs:

AMD A8-3870k

8 GB 2x4 Kingston hyper x

Asrock a55m-hvs

Kingston v300 120gb ssd

tp-link TL-WN722N

win 7 64-bit
