slow wireless - sometimes


Thread: slow wireless - sometimes

Hi,

I've had some weird speed issues with my wireless net.
It's nice and fast for LAN transfers but slows right down when downloading from the internet.

My speeds are as below:

(with adsl2+ synced at 1600kB and wireless G)

Ethernet LAN = full 100mbit speeds
Ethernet internet = 1600kB/s

Wireless LAN = about 3000kB/s
Wireless internet = 250kB/s at best.

So yea, the wireless internet should be getting 1600kB/s just like with the ethernet cable but it's not... Buggered if I can work out why.

My old laptop with an earlier Atheros card worked perfectly, every other wireless device I can get my hands on works perfectly too.

I'm guessing its a bug in the drivers for this newer card. (Atheros AR5006EG)

So far I've tried Unblocka and TCP Optimizer but they both just ended up slowing everything down to around 100kB/s and two formats later...

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks
Hamish
