Wireless Dropped From 150Mbps To 54Mbps
Apr 29, 2012
I bought a new system case, installed everything from the old case added 2 additional fans and now my wireless network speed dropped from 150 to 54 aand I have no clue why. New case has a bottom mounted PSU and old had a top mount so netcard sets about 4" higher then it used to but other then that nothing has changed. Also when I brouse thru things I noticed this "LocalSystemNetworkRestricted" allot of places and do not remember seeing this before, I have used a different system to check out my router and it is same as always.

I have an SMCWBR14S-N4 router, and I'm using a usb wireless adapter that says it supports n, and promises speeds of 150 mbps. My signal strength is excellent, yet my speed is only 54 mbps. This is the only wireless connection on my network, I have 2 PCs connected at 100 mbps, and a Dish DVR connected at who knows what speed.
I've been trying to read questions and answers from others online, and I keep reading that ISP speed plays a role. How does my ISP's speed affect my wireless network's speed? (Plus, I run speedtest.net all the time and my download speed is usually 260 mbps.)
But my question is simply why is my speed so low and what can I do about it?

I just installed a WRT320N for someone's home network, with the intent of providing better speed for network printing.
Unfortunately, all four of his n-capable Windows computers will only connect at 54mbps. Four different computers (Win7, Vista, XP), each with a different brand/model of n-capable network adapter.
I suppose I could try setting the wireless to n-only instead of "mixed". However, he's got a couple g-only devices as well, so that wouldn't work.
I tried updating the firmware to latest/greatest - no effect.

My E3200 is having issues with keeping the speed up on wireless G. I'm about 20 feet away from the E3200 and there is 1 6in wall between me and the E3200. My connection will not hold 54Mbps, its constantly dropping to 36Mbps, even down to 5.5Mbps faily often. Around 30 feet away there i will lose internet connection yet my laptop says excellent connection to wireless.

I have encountering a problem with a new installation at my clients side recently.We have a 5508 wlc and a bunch of Laps connected to it.Recently we associated a 1142ap to the same controller.The issue we are facing is that , the client laptops that are connected to THIS ap are showing maximum of only 54mbps in their network information dialogue box.Initially i couldn't understand why this could happen.But after a bit of research , i came to know that this could happen because of ``unticked`` data rates in the controller , or because of not using wpa2 with aes as the security standard for N-series access points.Now i have enabled all data rates in the High Throughput section as well as enabled the correct encryption standard.But still the issue persists.We have checked with multiple laptops , to rule out the possibility of a faulty n/w card

why I would get only 54mbps on an 802.11n connection with laptop sitting right next to the router with 100% signal strength according to the router? Setting are mixed mode: 802.11n & g, Enable channel scan, Best Transmission Rate, Auto 20/40 width.
Could it be due to WEP security (need to use this for my kids Nintendo DS to connect)
I don't care about getting 300mbps like a lot of other are talking about. I just want more than 54mbps!

My laptops wifi speed drops from 54Mbps down to 1Mbps which is often causing me to disconnect from web application etc I am currently using a usb wifi dongle and the speed does not drop from 54Mbps which has made me believe the problem lies with the laptops internal wifi settings, after re installing my internal wifi's driver to a more recent version the problem is still the same, I am using a lenovo t61 laptop and my wirless router is a D-LINK DSL-240R, how to fix my internal wifi so that its speed is a constant 54Mbps as my 2 other laptops and notebooks are all at 54Mbps, because of this I believe this is an isolated problem.

I currently have a 802.11 G router of 54mbps (its claims its a super G 108 mbps tough). My notebooks have 802.11 N built in. Im thinking of upgrading my router to a 802.11 N 300mbps.However, I know that this may be irrelevant unless I have a internet conection that can achieve such speeds. So how do I test my internet speed to see if G is bottlenecking?

I did a hard reset and after that, when i power on the router, it works for aprox. 15 seconds, so i can access the interface at 192.168.1.1, but after those 15 seconds it doesnt respond. The lights are on as if it was perfect, but cant go on admins interface and ping doesnt work either. I did several resets, did the 30/30/30, and clicked on reset to factory defaults on those 15 seconds but nothing happens.

I am using WAP4410N access point to connect 5 computer to the network. Recently the wireless network is very bad; pakets are often being droped, very high reply times. I have upgraded to the latest firmware tried to change configuration with no use i even tried the default configuration. I assumed that there's interference. I tried another AP ( linksys one) and things seems to be okay. what would be the problem with AP?

My computer is one that I built with windows vista, and for the wireless connection I am using a USB adaptor. I am not too sure what other info I need to put here.My connection used to drop frequently (around every 5 min) and I would have really slow speeds (10ish kb/s). Recently, for some unknown reason, the dropping has stopped, but now I am getting speeds of around 9-15 kb/s.
The thing that has me COMPLETELY stumped is when I plug my laptop into the router, the wireless speed on my PC speeds up to, according to speedtest.net, 5.8 Mbps. If I unplug the laptop from the router,the speed on my PC slows down to .25 Mbps, yes - POINT .25 Mbps.I have attached the tester .

I have a WR700N set up in bridge mode so as to provide a wifi signal in far end of our home. I used Bridge so we can tell which router we are connecting to. So we have two SSIDs (MySSID1 and MySSID2) Both with secure log-in. This works fine for about a day, and then disconnects. I then have to mess with the WR700N by plugging it in and out, maybe logging into it and changing something. Then it will work again - for a day
I updated the firmware with no change. Main router is a Dlink 615 with IP of 192.168.0.1. connected to cable modem. TP-LINK is set at default of 192.168.0.254 and gets a wireless signal from dlink.In an attempt to improve situation, I now have both units set to channel 11 and with fixed 20Mhz channel width. b/g/n on TP and g/n on dlink.

Just bought a new TP-Link TL-WR720N router. Hooked it up and got internet access just fine. However, when I go to [URL] or http://192.198.0.1 to try and login to setup the router, I just get the standard message:
Username or Password is incorrect. Please refer to the troubleshooting below:
Is the "Caps Lock" enabled on your keyboard? The username and password must be lowercase, please ensure that the "Caps Lock" LED is disabled on your keyboard and try again.Forgot your username or password? Please reset the device to the factory default settings if you have forgotten your username or password. The default username and password are both set as "admin". Note: The settings will be restored to factory default after the resetting.How to restore the device to the factory default settings? Firstly locate the reset button on the rear panel of the unit, whilst the device is powered on press and hold the reset button for more than 5 seconds, the device will then reboot and restore itself to the factory default settings. I am using a Cat 5e ethernet cable, I don't have NOD32 or any other antivirus or firewall blocking access, I even changed the settings and disabled IPv6 via ethernet since that was also suggested in the FAQ, but I still don't get a login screen.
I reset the router, rebooted my computer, unplugged the modem/router, reset everything again, double checked the IP address and pinged the router with excellent results, but nothing makes it so the login screen appears.I then hooked up the router to a PC running Windows XP with Internet Explorer 8 and the login screen works fine like you would expect. Went in, adjusted settings, everything works ok. This router is very new, it should support Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 9, shouldn't it? I don't want to have to keep old computers around just to login and change settings on my router.There must be some default setting in Windows 7 or in IE9 that causes this issue with the TL-WR720N router. I've tried everything that seems to cause the same issue on other routers, both TP-Link and other brands, and none of those seem to be what's causing this. TP-Link might want to address this ASAP and fix whatever causes it, otherwise this router is not going to do very well in the marketplace if setting it up with Windows 7 PCs with IE9 is a problem. It should work with default settings, same as it seems to with Windows XP and IE8.

I have just bought the device. I works fine as a AP out of the box. I want to use it as a repeater of my wireless network which uses a Linksys Simultaneous Dual Band N Router WRT400N
1. To do the setup, I have tried to login at 192.168.0.254 I cannot do this (a) using a wireless connection to a Linksys router which is connected to the cable modem and (b) wired connection to the router which is connected to the cable modem. The attempts get a timeout messaage.
2. The default gateway is 192.168.1.1. The DHCP server has the same address. My computer is using 192.168.1.101.
3. I use McAfee Internet Security software.
