So about a month or so I fixed my internet so it would be playable. Recently we switched internet companies(and modems). I've been getting some bugs with my ability to actually connect to my internet. I use a wireless connection, not ether-net and we get 54 mbps spread across 6 people. I'm just looking for a temporary solution until I get my own internet connection.
One bug involves a parental lock on my internet. I'm positive that on the router setting I don't get locked out, but sometimes at night at around 10 pm I get locked out of my internet and I either have to wait a little for it to give me my internet back or I just restart my computer and it unlocks the internet.
Another bug is that at random times at night my computer can't identify our network and it takes a few minutes to get connection again. This happens multiple times then stops for the rest of the night.
Also my bars are dropping, I have a wifi extender in my room and I should always be getting 5 bars of internet but sometimes it dips down to 2-4 during this time my ping in game shoots up to 600 and freezes. After I stop being frozen I spike to 200-300 until I disconnect from my wifi and connect again and regain normal ping and bars.
I think these problems have something to do with my wifi card but I'm not going to buy a new one till I know for sure what the problem is.
I do not want to lag out every match and scrim next season, I've already done that. If you need anymore info feel free to ask, I love any and all input.

Download InSSIDer (http://www.techspot.com/downloads/5936-inssider.html) and have a look to see if other wireless networks are interfering with your signal. I was having similar dropouts on wifi until recently (had to reset my router a lot) and when I checked I saw a lot of correlation between my lag spikes and spikes in the signal strength of other wifi networks. My solution was to just run an ethernet cable to my desk, which worked. If you can't do that yet then I suggest trying to move your wifi network to a less used frequency band to minimise interference, but that may not help matters much.

Hey, dude, I'm also in Lebanon, internet is really fucking shit here, as you know. I gotta ask, what company were you with? And what company did you switch to?
We have the exact, same issues with disconnecting//reconnecting. If you're with Sodetel, you're pretty much fucked.
