Not getting 300Mbs speeds Revisted
I see this is a common thread. About a year ago, I moved and and had to get a wireless NIC card for my PC as it is no longer feasible for it to be within cable reach of the modem/router setup, so I purchased a Rosewill Dual Band PCIE card (N600PCE), 802.11 (a, b, g, n). Ever since I installed it, it never liked my Cisco Linksys E2500, also Dual Band 300+300 Mb/sec. Fortunately, after the previous ISP provider issued a DSL modem with built in WiFi, that went away. But we just changed providers and the cable modem has no WiFi, so I had to dig out the E2500 again and at first, it was working at 300Mb/sec, but then it started acting erratically, constantly dropping connection to the network. FINALLY, I uninstalled and reinstalled the original drivers that came with the card and used the LAN wizard that came with it, but I'm not seeing better than 144Mb/sec. Any thoughts or suggestions?
BTW, the router is a version 1 and was flash updated during my setup.
