Re: droping signl, worse than usal

The signal goes from your computer to a server somewhere that your ISP runs.
Sometimes if you keep dropping off it can be caused by being right in between two servers and they keep switching.
You could try to connect to a hot spot if one is near you.
Google hotspot and it may give you a map of hot spots in your area.
