Is it plugged into USB 3.0 or USB 2.0? If the former, try the latter, and vise versa.

Other wireless devices having the problem or just this one?

Some basic things to try: connecting strictly to your 2.4ghz or 5ghz band, refresh IP and DNS, different USB ports.

Also resetting your modem/router if that's an option.

Sometimes I get builder's itch

Ditch the USB, They are not good. I'd recommend getting a Wireless PCI-E card. It'll be much better.

Okay I Tried to use it on the USB 3.0 & it did the same thing, the USB  2.0 on the other hand is where the Adapter Used to be Attached so it's kinda out of the list now
