Is it because:
I have just got a computer and connected it to the internet today
I do not have any anti virus software
There are loads of things on my router
I am connected wirelessly through a wireless USB adapter

It could be the fact that you&#x27;re using a USB for the wireless communication. Is it USB 3 or 2? How far are you from the router? Is there anything blocking the path to the router (walls, furniture, etc. can weaken the signal). You could also just have a slow connection speed. How many Mbit&#x2F;s are you paying for? If it&#x27;s less than 3 MBit&#x2F;s that could be a reason. Did the router come with drivers you have to install? If so I would install them

I recommend you getting an anti-virus software. Make sure you don't have any unnecessary background programs running
