Wireless slow (500kb/s)
Hello,
My wireless is slow on my new sony vaio I purchased about a month ago. The adapter for the wireless is a 5100 AGN and my router is a WPN824 V3. It says that I have an excellent internet connection, but in actuality, its slow writing emails on gmail (the letters appear about 10 seconds after they are typed, sometimes not even appearing) and pages sometimes do not load and have the blue circle going round and round with nothing being displayed (several refreshes later the page loads). I made sure to calibrate everything on the router with the laptop (for example, the b/g connection on advanced settings). Any other tips?
Also I went on a speed test sight and compared the download rate of the laptop vs. the hard wire. The hard wire was about 6 times faster than the wireless on the laptop.
Thanks for any and all suggestions.
