Low speed on Wireless N

I'm trying to implement a DV6 on Wireless N. I have a Linksys WRT160N router and get speeds up to 120mbps on a desktop wireless located near 100 feet from the router. I can not get over 54 Mbps on the laptop, even within 10 feet. I checked the properties of the device and verified that the width of the channel is set to AUTO and 802.11n Mode is ENABLED. I noticed the rest of my system below specs. Any help would be appreciated.

LAPTOP MODEL: HP DV6

Operating systems: Windows 7 (64-bit)

RAM: 4 GB

WiFi ADAPTER: Intel WiFi Link 1000 BGN

PILOT: 13.0.0.107

ROUTER: Linksys WRT160N

FIRMWARE: 3.0.02

After much research, I believe I have solved the problems with the Wireless N of low speeds, especially with Intel WiFi Link 1000 BGN configurations. Here's what I could learn from Intel support forums.

"The IEEE * 802.11n draft prohibits using high throughput with WEP or TKIP as the unicast encryption algorithm." If you use these methods of encryption (WEP, WPA-TKIP), your rate will be reduced to 54 Mbit / s. Intel® WiMAX/WiFi Link 5350, Intel® WiMAX/WiFi Link 5150, Intel® WiFi Link 5300, Intel® WiFi Link 5100, Intel® WiFi Link 1000, and Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN client drivers connect using a legacy IEEE 802.11 g connection rather than failing to connect altogether which complies with the IEEE 802.11n draft standard. "This means that you must use a connection Wi - Fi Protected Access * (WPA2-AES or WPA2-TKIP).

I have reset the wireless security on my router to use WPA2-AES, reconfigured my laptop for the same security settings and options was immediately connected to more than 200 Mbit/s.

  • E1200 low speed wired & wireless through L2TP

    I have the L2TP connection. Without the router, just cable, I have 35 MB/s download and 70 Mbit/s upload.

    Through the E1200 wired & wireless, I get a huge download speed 5-14 Mbps.

    I have the latest firmware and I reset it after the update.

    I read a lot of information about it and a lot of people write that this router just can't handle the gear through L2TP.

    Is this true? It could be fixed?

    If you get only 5-14Mbps download speed via the router, which is so far beyond the rate without it, I must say that the router has problems. You can try to lower the MTU settings to 1460, and then do the test using speedtest.net.If that does not solve the problem, I suggest getting a new router, preferably a one gigabit.

  • Low-speed satellite Pro U400-142 - Wireless-N speed problems-

    Hi guys...

    I ve just bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-142...
    I have a belkin N1 Wireless cable router...
    I was really happy that I could get the speed up to 300 Mbps... with this laptop and the router...

    I am very very disappointed that he is only showing 65Mbps... My laptop supports Wireless N such that it has a wifi Intel 5100 card inside...
    Why show a low speed?

    I m in the same room as the wireless router if the signal is excellent...
    I've tweaked on with the settings in the network adapter settings...
    I got it to 130Mbps... for about 10 seconds before it dropped back down to 65Mbps...

    Can someone tell me what is the problem?
    I need to change some settings on my N1 router or what?
    This was one of the main reasons why I bought this laptop.

  • Satellite P100 GPU fan turns costantly at low speed?

    Finally something strange happened on my laptop and I wonder if even happened to other users of P100 series laptop. All of the sudden GPU fan began to operate at low speed all the time. Before he reached 60 ° C and then had shrapnel short until it cooled down to 50 ° C and the order. But now it runs at very low speeds and temperatures are around 48 C. It is not noticeable and I'm very happy with what (it should be like that from the start).

    Now I wonder what could have triggered that. Do you have bios that has changed (I have the latest 2.40). At the beginning when I changed the computer bios worked as before, but then at some point I changed muffler in performance mode and since that day, the GPU fan runs constantly. I tried to change it to silent mode, but the GPU fan runs all the time. My laptop is P100-115 (Geforce 7600)

    Hello

    Looks like you re a happy with the use of the fan.
    I think that the new BIOS has been changed and that's why he has better influence on the performance of cooling module and so it works at very low speed. I think it is much better than the rotation of the fan restless.

    As you have already mentioned the Toshiba power saver controls the speed of the CPU and cooling method. If these settings could affect the cooling of laptop.
    But believe me; It of much better to have the constant low temperature and fans completely.

When I look at Cisco Connect, everything seems normal. factory settings. I worked a lot so something has changed. Help me, my children are revolting.

    Thanks for all help. Nothing has worked.

    On a live chat, the agent of Linksys gave me some valuable tips. two options actually.

    One} buy a new router to a 10% duscount or B} pay for a bore of premium support.

    I decided to launch this router on the sidewalk and go with the Apple of Base Station.

    I am a Mac guy since 87, what I was thinking of buying it? It was less expensive.

  • [WRE54G v3 - EU] Strong signal but very low speed

    Hello

    I just managed to get my new WRE to work after digging around several useful threads. My laptop connected successfully through the WRE and I got the signal strength excellent (54 Mbit/s as the status of dialogue shown). However, when I tried to browse multiple web pages, they took a long time to load. I ran a test of speed at speedtest.net and I'm barely 100 KB/S download speed (sometimes, it falls as low as 50 KB/S). Before when I connect my laptop in my room through the living room's wireless router, the signal was weak but the download speed was decent.

    Is that what I can do to help increase the download speed? Any idea/useful experience will be greatly appreciated! My router is not Linksys but custom-made by my ISP to support DSL, phone and TV at the same time.

    Thank you!

Why my new performance as Corsair is defined by the hardware to work on the low clock speed, also is there nothing in the BIOS to change the clock speed of RAm etc.

    Could someone help me in this regard?

    Thank you

    Hello:

    I can't tell you why the performance of WEI memory went down, but he certainly wouldn't.

    The faster the memory will run in your computer laptop is 1333 MHz, because it is the fastest speed of the processor i7-2670QM FSB can run to, so installation PC3-12800 (1600) memory provides no advantage.

    The original memory regardless who did, should have been 1333 MHz.

    You need a PC with an Intel 7 series chipset and the 3rd generation of processor core to memory to operate at its rated 1600 MHz.

  • T400 problem with slow speed internet wireless. Help, please

    Hello

    Just got my new T400 (276581U) and I am very happy with it. However, he has a problem. I searched extensively in this area and other forums, but have not found the solution. So any input or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Problem:
    upload and download speed is very slow when connected to wireless broadband. Measures download speed 1 Mbit/s on www.speedtest.net, while two other computers (XP and Vista) reach speeds 6 Mbit/s on the same network wireless download.

    I tested the computer via LAN and here it downloads at normal speed of 6 Mbps.

    OS: Windows 7
    Network cards:
    Intel 82567LF Gigabit network connection (driver version: 10.1.6.0)
    Intel Wifi Link 5100 AGN (driver version: 13.0.0.107)

    I have download all the latest drivers on the Lenovo support site. The pilot Gigabit Network Connection, I downloaded however Intel, as there is no driver windows 7 on Lenovo website. The Intel driver has improved my connection to the local network (before that I could not download the full site content) and it has not changed my connection Wireless for the better or worse.

    Wireless configuration:
    Wireless g connected to the modem access point high speed
    So, to access internet, I need to connect twice, first the access point, and then click the modem to broadband. This configuration works on two other computers in the House. The lenovo is however not seem to recognize that I am online, even when I am. The symbol "not connected" is always displayed in the toolbar, and diagnostic tests tell me that I'm not online. That might relate to the problem.

    Thanks for reading this. I hope that some kind soul can help.

  • Low-speed Internet with wired connection to E4200

    I have a HP Pavilion p6347c AMD Athlon II X 4 630 2.80 GHz, 64 Bit, Windows 7 SP1 WITH 16 GB of Ram, using Comcast high speed Internet.

    It works very well and I had no problem with my Pavilion until I replaced my old router G with a LinkSys E4200 (state-of-the-art, the top page of the router line N).  All the features work well, except that when I use Firefox 7.0 or Internet Explorer 9.0, the connection time is very very very slow when my computer is connected to my router with an Ethernet cable.  The problem disappears when I log - in using the same Ethernet cable - directly into the modem high speed; Then, the loading speeds are fast as lightning.  When I return to the router via a wired connection, even - page very very very slow post.

    I've already spent about 8 sessions with LinkSys on the phone and chat, and it turns out that the router is not the problem (according to LinkSys).  They advised that I need to contact the manufacturer of the computer, or people who can respond to Windows 7 support issues.  Someone at - it ideas?  Maybe something I can change in the settings of the firewall, network, computer security options settings?

    I connected my HP laptop running WINDOWS VISTA on the same Ethernet cable and disabled the wireless.  The speed of the wired connection is quick as a Flash - no problem at all.

    Then why my desktop Windows 7 SP1 computer not offer me the same speed?  Whenever I need to do important online work, I have to unplug my Ethernet cable from the router and plug directly on the modem to get faster speeds.  I then reconnect to the router once completed, so that users without wire and devices on my network work.  It's very frustrating.

    Help!  I am at a loss to understand why this computer has not faster to the Internet when wired to the router.  Is - this Windows 7?  There are some options that I need to change?  Someone at - he heard talk about this and you offer solutions?  Appreciate any assistance.  Thank you.  / Jacques novel /- [email protected]

    P.S. Customer LinkSys was no contribution to this issue.  I hope that some tech "warned" this reading will say AH-HAH and offer a viable solution.

    On a hunch, I selected the reset 'Factory Defaults' option in the Administration, after having updated the firmware. Something must have been damaged during the first attempt to install the router.

     

    To reset the default settings, you must have the original Setup disk and re-install using the same router name and the password.

     

    When this was done, the Ethernet connection worked perfectly.  Hope it will be useful to all having the same problem.

  • Speed EA4200 wireless problems

    Hello

    I just bought the EA4200, and I find that the speed wireless connection failed. I'm not a superwiz to computers and especially not as routers, but I do know most of the basics and how to interact with routers, etc.

    in any case, when I test my connection via an Ethernet cable via the router that I get about 90 m/bits-per-second download, but when I connect with my WIFI this speed is only about 11 m/bits per second. I tried with several units (2 PC and Playstation 3) in my house and the same result, even if the download speed varies somewhat (8-11 m/bits where I with Ethernet to move 30 m/bit)

    Now... I live in an apartment with tons of networks around me, I have more conscience puts a limit on this, but come on? Can it really be true that it's all EA can muster? I thought the dualband was supposed to be the best? What I don't use? What can I do?

    I tried to turn off the channels 2.4 Ghz, which is just the single 5 GHz to the active channel. This resulted in most of my wireless devices cannot connect wirelessly at all. I turned it back on. I did a few google searches, but to no avail. What do you suggest to me that I do? My old Netgear router and not dualband, did a better job?

    Thanks in advance for your answers

    You'll have a problem with a lot of AP autour 2.4 that is for sure.  However, make sure that you use WPA2-AES encryption.  Check if WMM is it on or off, test both on and then off.

    Oh, you realize that you need an adapter dual-band capable of 802.11 a/b/g/n to connect to the 5 GHz band?
