Ok I have encountered a really strange situation. I built my first computer today and was having great difficulty getting connected to the internet. For some reason, the W7-64 bit does not recognize the WG121 Wireless USB adapter for my router. So I believe that I have been left with little choice.


I am currently connected to the internet via an ethernet. The ethernet cable works at like 1/100th the speed it should. I wonder if the ethernet port got partially fried when I built the computer today.

For example: My download speed is 7 kb/s as opposed it its 700 k/b on my laptop

I changed ethernet cables to see if the actual cable was broken but the problem persisted. I also tried changing ports on my router... but to no avail :(

Any suggestions???
I am going to kill myself if this problem does not resolve itself for spending 1 grand on a gaming computer that has 10 kb/s internet !!!
