    D-Link DWA-552 Xtreme N Desktop Adapter Causing Stuttering


    My desktop d-link wireless card is causing my desktop to stutter. I have done a bunch of tests on my hardware / software / drivers, and I am sure it is a problem with the D-link card. I am currently at school where I have to connect to the internet using XpressConnect ( Cloudpath Networks - WPA2 ).

    The stuttering effects the entire system (sound, video, keyboard/mouse, etc) and lasts for a few seconds. Additionally, it only occurs when streaming video/music online, or when playing online games.

    I have updated the drivers, and I have installed the drivers without the D-link software using device manager and selecting the driver files from my computer.

    Here is a video of what is happening:

Recently I have been having an issue with stuttering on my computer running Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium whenever I use either my Logitech F310 gamepad or any of the extra buttons on my Madcatz S.T.R.I.K.E. 7 keyboard (the regular keys and touchscreen works fine). The stuttering only begins to...
A friend of mine gave me a D-Link Rangebooster N 650 and when i got home and i plugged it into my PCI port, nothing happened. No LED from the card itself, no notification from Windows, nothing. I tried another PCI port but nothing worked. What should i do?
I was recently trying to play a game on my Nvidia 9500GT when it started stuttering intensely. I thought it was a processor issue, since it was reading at being under 100% load, but when I checked my temperatures, the CPU was barely under any stress while the video card had heated to 111 degrees. ...
