Still playing ( learning ) with the Vista and Dell Inspiron, and made a
interesting discovery today. I was getting speeds about 4200 Kbps on a T/W
cable wireless setup with a distance of 25 feet from the Linksys to the PC.
Today I moved the Linksys unit about 5 feet from the Dell and ran an
ethernet cable to replace the wireless adaptor. Now the speed tests are
showing results of 7000-7100 Kbps. OK so its not the newsflash of 2008 but I
still am excited! I didn't know that wireless reduced speed by so much. I
must tell you that the upload speed is still unimpressive, showing about (
sigh ) 375 Kbps on the results. I know this isnt a Vista issue so please
excuse the improper posting but I thought someone might find it useful! TJ
