Hi Guys. I've got a 802.11g Wireless card and Linksys WAG54G. I've also got my "NAS/Media Centre" connected to the WAG via wired 100Mbit Ethernet. Now, "G" wireless is supposed to be 54Mbit per second. Which if you take it at face value should give you around 6Mb a second transfers. However whenever I'm transfering to and from my NAS I'd be luck to break 200kb a second. Now I know the "advertised" speed of 802.11g isn't close to 6mb/sec but I would have thought I'd get faster than 200kb a second. Why is it so slow? How can I make it faster? eth1 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"FlindersLAN" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462 GHz Access Point: 00:13:10:9A:DD:9C Bit Rate=54 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:off Link Quality=94/100 Signal level=-41 dBm Noise level=-81 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:1 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:5 I am using WEP. Turning this off would make things faster I imagine. How much of a difference though? Regards -- Oliver Jones <oliver(a)deeperdesign.com> Deeper Design
