How long should an iPhone 5 take to fully charge?

I got my iphone 5 last week, on the first day I let it run down to 0% battery from when I took it out the box. On the first charge it must have taken roughly 1-1.5 hrs to fully charge but since then it seems to take double to amount of time to charge? Does anyone know if this is a normal amount of time or whether there's a problem? I've heard roughly it only normally takes an hour to completely charge. If anyone has any info/tips that would be great, thanks

What is wrong with my internet connection?

Ever since I bought Tenda it's worked great. Then I bought a new computer (hp Pavilion desktop) and tried to connect to the internet. IT WON'T WORK. The internet still works fine on all the other devices in my house including laptops and iphones, but for some reason it just doesn't want to work for this computer. It will say it's connected, then not work when I try to go to a web page. Then it will just automatically disconnect and not show up as an available network for a few minutes, then reappear. I don't get it. I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting the router, and I tried typing in the IP address and upgrading and rebooting the router. Nothing works. Can someone please give some suggestions on how to fix this?

Twitter SMS & Twitter App Mobile Notifications?

I have and Iphone 4, currently up to date, etc etc.

When I turn on mobile notifications on twitter I receive both the SMS/404-04 text notification and a push notification from my twitter mobile app. I would prefer to receive the notifications from my app only and not SMS. It would be easier to distinguish tweet from normal texts. Plus The SMS notifications leave my texts list messy.

I can't figure out how to do this anywhere. Solutions?
