netbook wifi painfully slow
I have a Samsung NC10 with W7 installed (build 7264).
My wifi has always been fine, fairly speedy for a netbook. However, now that I'm overseas in the middle east at this time, its very slow specifically for me.
I'm connected to a cable connection. My two friends are upstairs and their connection on their notebooks [not netbooks] using Vista is very speedy for them, on wifi. I'm 2 feet away from the router myself. Its a Dlink DIR-300 w/ latest firmware.
I have the latest Atheros wifi drivers installed via windows update. I even tried the XP drivers via Samsungs site. Same problem, cruising at 10-20kb per second on average. Very slow. Replicated in IE8 and Firefox 3.5.1
I even tried the TCPZ tool as well. Did nothing.
Any ideas?
