Is my only option buying a new adapter? I hate the idea of spending that kind of money when I have a 1-year-old adapter that should have been working in the first place. I have just gone past my warranty of 1 year, and am a little bitter that I didn't send the computer in for repair earlier but I felt that I could have fixed the problem myself using support centers such as this. I have combed the net for solutions and have found many people with the same problem with this adapter but no one has a solution. I have tried manually resetting the adapter with the switch on my computer, nothing.

I have reinstalled the new driver multiple times, which has helped in the past, but now it does nothing. Now the connection won't last for more than a few seconds though it works fine when hooked up with an ethernet cable to my router, which is what I am using now. When I first started using the router I would encounter this problem once a day where the adapter would stop working and I would have to restart the computer to get it working again.
