Hello,
I wanted to check for updates for my wifi card, and i went to the intel driver website.
Downloaded and installed the newest driver.
And some thing happened:
My card name was : Intel Wifi Link 1000BGN
After the driver, it changed to : Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1000
In inSSIDer: before the driver update i had a max rate of 64
after the update, it becomes 156
Are all thoses things normal?
how do i reach 300?
thanks for the quick reply
EDIT:
I am surrounded by a lot of networks, would the change affect?
There are actually no free chanel
There are around 7 networks in ch1,6,11 each
That can be tricky and requires a strong 5 bar connection plus a few clear channels so that channel bonding can work as it should.
You also need to use the 802.11n Only setting in your router, using the mixed settings...like wireless G or below won't give you best speeds, and G or below clients will not be able to connect when using the N Only setting. You also need to use WPA2 security with AES encryption.
To use channel bonding there should be a setting in your router "20-40Mhz" setting or 20Mhz, the 20-40Mhz is channel bonding mode.
Then you need to use Xirrus software to explore the wireless landscape in your area to find a few clear channels. Some experimenting here with different chanels is required.
