I purchased a Cybertron desktop recently. It came pre-installed with Windows 8.1

Here are its specs (link):

System: AMD FX 6300 3.50GHz 6-Core; AMD 760G Chipset; 16GB DDR3; 1TB HDD; Genuine Windows 8.1 64-bit

Gaphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 2GB Video Card (Replaced it with NVIDIA 750 Ti; 24X DVD±RW Dual-Layer Drive; Audio: 7.1 Channel; Gigabit LAN

Wireless: 802.11b/g/n Wireless (The NVIDIA 750Ti was too big to have the internal wireless card, so I got a Linksys AC1200 USB Network Adaptor

If I use an Ethernet cable, I can connect to the internet completely fine. But if I try to use Wi-Fi, the connection is completely horrid.

My computer can connect to my router just fine, and the only problem that Windows ever found while troubleshooting was the following image:

When I try to connect to websites, the browser continuously tries to load the page without success like 75% of the time. Sometimes, my connection seems to work perfectly, but this only lasts a short amount of time.

I have tried all of these:

  • Updating network adapter driver
  • Uninstalling and re-installing the network adapter driver
  • ipconfig/dnsflush in command prompt
  • So, so many other things that I read online, none of which helped

Also, I have an Acer laptop as well that is running Windows 8.1 64-bit, and its wireless works fantastic.

If you have any ideas at all, please, please, please let me know!

  • It says it uses either. I will add that to the question

  • But which one is your network using. If you have a two separate networks ( one and each frequency ) does this problem exist on both? DNS problems are easy enough to fix.

  • 802.11n can broadcast at 2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz. This isn't a difficult question to answer. What frequency is your router broadcasting at.
