I'm downstairs and the router is upstairs. Although I'm not very far from the router so that shouldn't be an issue. Especially with FiOS. With my current configuration it doesn't give me signal strength simply because I'm technically hardwired.
Hmm, so far any advice you have been given will have been completeley wrong as your post's title said Wireless Network ADAPTER and what you actually meant that you have a Wired Router, albeit wired via power line.
Is your machine hard wired connected to the Netgear device? or do you have another wireless router connected to it?
When you played with the wireless channels in response to an earlier posters comments it should have had ZERO effect on the connectivity as you are not connected wirelessly.
That device is rated for 85mb on a good day
Are the 2 ends of the devices connected directly into a wall socket? no powers strips, extension cords etc?
if you test your speed via http://speedtest.verizon.net what results does it give you?
This review sounds just like your issue
Summary: The first set up is so exciting. We have adapters in 5 rooms (at great but desperate expense). The speed throughout was amazing...for the first week. Then we were getting intermittent connectivity. You'd lose connection and wait 10 minutes and it might come back on. Now I find out that some electrical appliances in your home can interfere with the signal. So keep the television off!!! It's back to adjusting settings on a daily basis. DeJaVuWireless. I get speeds of 150 on one unit and 25 on another. $600 bucks down the drain!!!
