Nert Speed Isues?
1st a little background: Win 7 x64, 8gb. I was running cable (5/1). We have moved into a condo (temporary). The place has WiFi all set up so if I wanted to be online I had to do something because the machine was set up for cable. After days of research I settled on a Linksys AE2500 USB WiFi adapter. Now the strange part. My iPad 3 gets, on the average, 15Mbs down & 1.5mbs up. Pretty good throughput IMO. Now, when I test my Win 7 machine I get an average of 2.5Mbs down & 1Mbs up. Terrible! Lots of times my browser will time out before a page finishes loading (not acceptable).I haven't tweaked any settings or done anything except to test speed at various times and conditions. My question is painfully obvious, what, if anything, can be done? As always. comments or flames welcome.
Tnx,
Dusty (I just saw that "Nert Speed Issues", LOL that's how frazzled I am
