Re: Wireless considerably faster one way than the other



Hey, you're not going to believe this...

So I bought myself a nice shiny new 11g access point, nice unit, 3Com
OfficeConnect ADSL, 11g & Router.

Hmm. QCheck now shows that my throughput is roughly 500k to 1Mbps in
both directions. The Intel statistics show that there's around 75%
transmit errors. I've played with all the settings I can imagine, to no
avail. This is slower than I was originally getting when checking
throughput from laptop to desktop when I was using the old (broken?)
11b access point.

Fortunately the access point came with a free USB 11g network adaptor
stick. I plug that in instead of using the laptops built-in Intel
2200bg adapter, and bingo, my throughput goes to roughly 15-20 Mbps. I
can't see the Intel statistics on this because the Intel software won't
recognise it.

Huh?
