A computer is only as fast as it's slowest component, so it also relies on the amount and speed of RAM, the bus speeds of the motherboard and storage drives, and the power of the video card. Any other components involved in a process, such as USB drives, can also cause a slower function, i.e. copying files to an older USB drive.

Open up your network settings that you can access via which ever computer you used to set up your wireless network. This is usually the computer connected to the router which is connected to your modem. When you open the configuration you will need to change the setting that controls how many devices can be connected to your network. This is usually either a drop down or an open field where you can put in a specific number or say unlimited. There are a few other options but I believe that this will fix your problem.

High voltage low amp adaptor you have the original power adapter for your laptop The output rating for the ac adapter is 19v 3.42A you have a replacement that has a 30v and 2.5ACan you use it?

No. Two reasons.... It is a much higher voltage (30V) and will destroy your laptop. Even if the Volts were correct (19), the Amps aren't sufficient... The original can output much more than the replacement. If the laptop needs 3.42A (which it likely does) a 2.5A just isn't going to have enough umph to power it.
