Wireless speed

#1 Post by iglesiasb » Wed Nov 02, 2005 12:21 pm

Hi,

I just received my X41T yesterday. It has the intel wirless chip on it and I have a question about the speed.

I currently have Fios for home broadband 15 Mbps/2 Mbps. When I am connected wielessly to the router I get speed of 300 - 400Kbs downloads. When I connect the X41t to the router by cat5 I get speeds of 1.4 megs a sec downloading the same file. I realize that the wireless is going to be slower but that seems like a big drop to me especially since I am on a G network and the signal is at 100%.

Am I wrong, is this just the limit of the wireless g network? Any thoughts would be apprciated.

oh and I do not have any encryption turned on just mac address filtering.

A tad low if you are referring to KB/s, 11b gives about 250KB/s with WEP and 11g about 600KB/s, the 11 and 54 ratings are "raw" ratings...
