Right, haven't really got a clue when it comes to networking so here is what I know.

As security we deny certain mac addresses from using our network, and have an approved list that the software on the main PC will allow.

My computer is the one having the problems, and i have 3 adapter entries in the Device Manager list:

Microsoft Virtual WiFi miniport adapter
Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller
TP-Link Wireless N Adaper (The actual driver for the WiFi card.)

Symptoms:

The internet runs slower on my PC than any of the other devices connected, it will run for X amount of time and then completely stop working until I restart or there are no other users (Not sure as I usually boot back up when nobody else is here due to different work times). I can get it to work by running troubleshoot problems in the taskbar, but it will only work for around a minute or two before shutting off again.
:(
This is really getting frustrating now, I use the internet for most uni work as its all online for me, and with uni starting again soon I need it back lol

Any ideas?
