uninstall/reinstall? I just generally buy the cheapo $25 rosewill usb wifi adapters from newegg, they work for a year or two, then rinse and replace.

If a driver re-install does not fix it, it's likely died. It was a pretty cheap device to begin with so dont expect those to last for terribly long.
