ProctorU

I've only done ProctorU once, so far. However, my take on the matter: a new computer won't help at all. The internet connection is MUCH more important. If you only have the bare minimum internet connection speed, you should consider bumping your plan up to the next level. Try watching YT videos at 1080p. Do you have issues with the video buffering? If you do, you're going to have issues with ProctorU. It may help to reposition the router/computer. If you have any tech-savvy at all, you will want to make sure that your router is broadcasting wifi on a different channel than any neighbors you might have. It's not uncommon for everyone around to be broadcasting on channel 1 and channel 8 is relatively clear and free of interference or vice versa. Some newer routers can choose a channel automatically but not all of them do or do it well.
