Wireless Networking Speeds?
    #8065450 - 02/24/08 06:01 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Hi guys,

I just setup a wireless laptop on a wireless network and the speed of the wireless laptop on a download was around 70 kbs or Kbs.....it was decent but not really as fast as I think that it should be.

I realize that it's never going to be as good as the straight wired connection but what is an average speed that I might expect to achieve from your experience?

Thanks. I have never used a connection like this so it is all new to me :smile:

We need to know the speed that you're paying for.

Is this a DSL connection on the router?
I have wireless, and get speeds upwards of 300 KBytes/sec.

It's a cable connection that advertises up to 10MBPS, but of course that is never so, on a good day I get between 1.5 - 3.0 out of it.

The router is a LINKsys 5 port wireless router with the desktop machine wired to it. The laptop is the only wireless machine thats on it and it's sort of slow.

Thanks.

Your wireless speeds should be nearly the same as wired, but with higher latency.

By latency you mean the getting started or initial connection?

Hrmmmmm, I will have to play around with the router to make sure it's running optimally. I just made sure that it was working first.

Any ideas on adjustments for a router that might help?

Thanks.
