    Yea, it looks like the adapter itself as that was the first thing that I did (swap in a different wifi card). I guess that I am still perplexed as to why in the DW WLAN utility that it shows it as setup for 270 but only gives me 65. I wonder if a patch would fix this or I have some setting out of place? What do you think?
    Thanks for your insight.

    About all you can do in this case is try Windows updates or look around or wait for a better driver. Cat 5 or 6 has nothing to do with this type of problem. Cat5 won't limit a gigabyte connection one bit.

    your work router may have the option of b, g or mixed. If it is set to b, that would account for your slow speed. You would need to be physically connected (unless they have wireless admin - I would hope not) to the router and have admin access to determine this.

    Yes the router does have the mixed mode (and wireless admin as well ) and it is set to a/b/g/n auto. This setting is made in the adapter setting for the wireless NIC. I will attach a screen shot of the router settings as well as that NIC setting as well.

    Hello everyone!

    I had the same problem with the "DW1501 Wiresless-N WLAN Half-Mini Card" about the slow connection.
    I fixed it myself in this way.

    Go to Device Manager:
    Look for the Network Adapters and open the properties of your "DW1501 Wiresless-N WLAN Half-Mini Card"
    When you're there, in the Advanced tab, Change the "BSS Mode" to 802.11g Mode.

    For me It was set by default on 802.11n Mode, I changed it and that fixed the problem.

    I hope this work for any of you guys that have this issue.

    72Mbps... I was downloading like 50KBps max... that's not even close to what the doc says.

    Anyways It looks like it was fixed because I reinstalled the driver a while ago and it's running on 802.11n just fine...

    Regards.!
