    Very slow wireless speeds


    i JUST restored my OS to Windows 7 Professional 64-Bit, computer is a Dell Inspiron N7110 with an i5-2450m@2.5GHz and 6GB ram..after installing fresh drivers from the dell site, i'm getting very very slow wireless speeds.

    Ookla wired speed - 88Mb/s down 12Mb/s up ping @ 28ms
    Ookla wireless speed - 3.30Mb/s down 11.96Mb/s up ping @ 28ms.

    System info:
    Processor: see it averaging about 30% steadily, with 5 IE windows open, none displaying anything but plain text
    Memory: Averaging 50-52% with the same windows open
    Disk: fluctuating between 0-50
    Network: fluctuating between 0-70Kbps (Chrome being highest in PID)

    Does the system info look normal? and any idea why my wireless is so slow?

    mok, what brand and model wireless adapter does it have?
    can you try changing the channel which the router is broadcasting on?
    is this the only computer using this wireless signal?
