Lenovo H430 Wifi issues

So first of all, I hardly know anything about hardware, and even less about networks and stuff. I bought a H430 recently and I'm having some wifi issues. It connects but it's really unstable, disconnects from time to time, and never works at full performance. Meaning I have a 20 MBs connection and the max I can get with it is around 6. It's not the connection cause a similar thing happens in other houses (I get considerably lower speed) and it's not the connection itself, cause every other computer in the house goes up to 20 and are really stable. Note that it's pretty unstable too, so I can get 6 mbs now, and a few minutes later 1 mb. Even when nothing else is connected to the internet.

So I was wondering if there's anything I can buy or do to improve it? Would appreciate if it was explained as simple as posible, since I don't really know much about this stuff. Thanks!

This is windows 8 Not very keen on win 8


Remove AVG From your Add remove programs.
Reboot.
Run App Remover.
http://www.appremover.com/

Reboot install Avast free.

Create a restore point and then untick ipv6.
http://www.techunbox...-windows-8.html

I see you have Ccleaner installed start it hit the tools button then the start up then disable all items except Avast.

Also run this program http://www.grc.com/dns/benchmark.htm follow the instructions on the page,when the program is done the two fastest dns servers for you will be listed input them on your machine.


http://kb.iu.edu/data/agof.html For your machine.

Reboot after and test.

Thanks a lot! It's now getting some more speed (going up to 10mbs), but it's still kinda inconsistent (gives me 10 sometimes, then 4-7). But it's better than what it was before.

One more question, I guess I need to do this before connecting to a different network, right? I actually live somewhere else so I will need to move the pc.

No all these settings (except the dns settings which since you used the dns benchmark program the dns settings may be the best for this particular location) will stay with the machine unless you update the wireless driver which may be a good idea in this case.

Also there is an error on the machine which may be due to needing to update the wireless driver.

Error: (12/27/2012 09:01:45 PM) (Source: Microsoft-Windows-WLAN-AutoConfig) (User: NT AUTHORITY)
Description: WLAN Extensibility Module has failed to start.
