Title: Slow wireless speed
Post by: Buckster on March 30, 2009, 05:38:53 AM

I have a DWL G510 card that is running at 18mbps thru a new DIR 615 wireless router. When I use my laptop, I'm getting 54 mbps. Both show excellent signal strength. Any ideas why my desktop runs so slow? Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Are you running the latest drivers?

I have downloaded the latest drivers. I had been using a D-link DI-524 wireless router before I got the new DIR-615 and it would run at 54mbps before it started dropping the connection and I stopped using it. My wired connections show 100mbps. Do you think its the card (DWL-G510)or the new router? I've tried all the ideas listed in other postings about slow speed. Using the Network Magic speed test I am getting 7000kbps download and 3300kbps upload on the wireless. Getting 12,000kbps download and 3300 upload on a wired computer. Any ideas would be appreciated
