Title: 270mbps gone after 1.20
Post by: nid on September 04, 2008, 12:04:07 PM

I have:

D-link DIR-655 A3 (1.11) and D-Link DWA-140 adapter with latest drive = 270mbps day and night.

Installed 1.20 I am now stuck at 130mbps. How can I can get 270mbps back? By the way, I have read the info on the sticky 300 Mbps connection requirements and I believe I met all of the requirements but still no luck.

To mask the problem I went back to firmware version 1.11 and my 270mbps is back.

Please help.

THanks,
Nid.

The general consensus is to stay away from 1.20...

I have been running at 300mbps via DWA-652 cards to my DIR-655 on FW 1.20 with no problems.

YMMV based on your hardware revisions, environment, and the phase of the moon.

Cheers!

After installing 1.20 and Re-Doing my laptop (the child got it infected) I find myself booting up the laptop and when connecting I get 130bps. If I reboot the Dlink wireless and log back on I end up getting the 300bps. Before the update to 1.20 I was consistantly getting 300bps and no need to reboot the router and log back on. Hope the Dlink techs read this.

I only have two devices connecting via N with DWA-652 cards.  With all versions of the firmware, I have consistantly had problems trying to run mixed G/N on the DIR-655 so all my G devices connect via my old G router.   My connection rate consistantly shows 300Mbps on the laptops, and the wireless status on the router consistantly shows 270Mbps in the Rate column when the devices are active.


Here are the settings from my DIR-655 in case anyone wants to try the same settings:

Hardware Version: A3
Firmware Version : 1.20,  2008/07/09
Connection Up Time:  45 Day 16 Hour 27 Min 20 Sec

Wireless Settings:
N-only, Channel 11, Transmission rate Best (automatic), auto 20/40 MHz, WPA-Personal, WPA2 Only, AES.

Advanced Wireless:
Power High, Beacon 100, WMM Enable, Short GI, Extra wireless Protection

i see...  you have N only... i think thats the difference....  if you have a g or b device the WHOLE network will slow down to that device...   not that it matters... my DS doesnt wanna seem to get an IP address and the signal strength drops out even if i have it directly over the router....
