TP-link wireless adapter problems.

[MachineKillx]

Hey guys, so I have a a Tp-link  TL-WN881ND, it served me well while it was working, but then, out of nowhere, it stopped working, while I was using the pc, I reinstalled it several times now, no results. The status light is not blinking, and I can't see it in device manager, is it, is it really fried? And also, considering I have 15mb internet, which I download stuff at a 1,5mb/s rate (I know it's slow), can I just get a 150mbps card? Can I fix my wireless adapter?

My wireless adapter, stopped working, while I was using my pc, I've reinstalled it several times with no results, and the status light is not on, neither can I see it in device manager, so is it ok to say it fried?

I guess, you're not really giving me much info.  Have you reseated?

I've re-read your statement several times now and I think that I understand.

 

If your wireless adapter died you can get any adapter you want, although you will have a much better experience when you select a adapter that pairs well with your access point.

Thanks for the help. Such a hassle though having to wait for shipping.

I think your TPLink adapter is fried. I have the WN-727N and it runs really hot. Too hot to touch sometimes. I think you're better off just getting a new one from a different brand honestly.
