In my bedroom I have my modem, wireless router (Netgear WGR614 v9), and my desktop computer which has a large HDD with all my movies, TV shows, and music. In my living room, I have my Xbox and new device I just recently installed, PBO (Patriot Box Office Core Media Player). The media player has ports for USB and ethernet hard drive connections.Basically what I'm looking for is a way to convert the wireless signal in my living room into a physical connection (ethernet cable) which I can plug into my PBO and watch high def (720p+ resolution) videos from my desktop.
I know that a USB wifi adapter would be simpler, but there's one thing I'm trying to determine before I buy: bottlenecking. I crunched the numbers (not quite sure how accurately mind you haha), and here's what I saw - a recent bandwidth test (using my desktop) reported my upload speed around 3000kpbs (375KB/s), whereas the sustained speed of USB 2.0 is reportedly anywhere from 5MB/s to 15MB/s (way higher).

I know that the 150Mps is peak speed. I wonder how to test the actual through speed of the router. Like what average speed do I get for 10 minutes of continuos streaming Speedtest.net is not useful because is just giving me the ISP speed instead of the router speed
I just discovered that my wireless download speeds are 5Mbps, compared to 16Mbps if my laptop is connected directly to the modem or wired through the router. Uploads are 2Mbps either way. I have a WRT54GS v.6 with firmware version v1.52.8 which I updated today, completed by setting factory default through the router webpage after I discovered this discrepancy. The firmware update did not improve the download speed appreciably, if at all.Should the wireless connection be that much slower than the wired connection through the router? If not, what sort of issues could I be having to account for this?
I did just replace my modem when I discovered I was having erratic speedtests and that corrected that problem. That is when I became aware of the wireless issue, so not sure how long that has been the case. I have Charter's 16/2 HSI, living in a sparsely populated area with solid internet service. There is no external nor internal interference on this 2.4Ghz band.
i have a wireless deplyoment with WLC 5508, ACS 5.2 and several AD connected by LDAP. It is required that users are authenticated by certificates additional the user should only get access to the wireless environment when the user is found in a certain security group in the Microsoft AD forrest. The certificate based authentication is working without any problems, except the lookup into the AD isn't working. Here are the Details of the "Evaluting Identity Policy"
Evaluating Identity Policy 15004 Matched rule 22037 Authentication Passed 22023 Proceed to attribute retrieval 24031 Sending request to primary LDAP server 24016 Looking up user in LDAP Server - Alex Dersch 24008 User not found in LDAP Server 22015 Identity sequence continues to the next IDStore 24209 Looking up Host in Internal Hosts IDStore - Alex Dersch 24217 The host is not found in the internal hosts identity store. 22016 Identity sequence completed iterating the IDStores
but the user can access the WLAN just without verifying the user in the AD. i tried the to enable Binary Comparisation but then the Authentication is not working any more. I get the same Identity Policy result as above.
i configured the Binary Comparisation as below:
I though with the binary comparisation i'll be able to verify the existance and the status of an user in the Active Directory.
I'm looking for a matrix on all Cisco Aironet products that shows the differences between the various platforms.I'd like to be able to see information on 802.11n capabilities (2x3 MIMO vs. 2x2 MIMO), lightweight vs. autonomous, internal vs. external antennae, PoE/power requirements, etc.
Am trying to verify performance figures for ACE 4710 as EOL replacement for a CSS 11503 Am sure that the ACE 4710 smokes the CSS but have to complete the due diligence
Pulling figures from data sheets, release notes etc.. I have only come up with the followingIs there any further figures available for the ACE 4710 to fill in the blanks in table?
I'm going to upgrade my WRT54G wireless router to an e2000 Linksys router. How does the e2000 compare to the WRT54G? I've had years of great services from my WRT54G router, but it has been acting flaky lately even with the latest firmware available. Just curious how the e2000 compares to the WRT series.
give me the run down on the features removed from the 4400 series in the 2500 series? Obviously 4400 is now EOL, and so i cannot purchase new. Therefore I was looking at the 2500 for my implementation to save costs also.I would like to have two SSID's, running seperate VLAN's, one voice, one guest, trunk the link to the AP's, which will be 1131AG or newer, N possibly. Voice needs to be encrypted with WPA or WPA2, guest needs to be open using the guest access feature. Here's a sample but with EAP:
[URL]
Is this supported to have WPA on one SSID and Guest access on the other? i did spot a paragraph in the 4400 manual stating that certain restrictions apply regarding one SSID having encryption and the other being guest mode?I notice also in the WCS documentation, it doesn't explicitly state it supports the 2500 series under the managed devices section?
I am currently using catalyst 4506 L3 switch and 2950 L2 switches for pc's which are EOL. I am replacing L3 with 3750X, two switches in a stack. L2 is 2960S all with gbps ports. I have to have a baseline (performance comparison with the current setup and new setup) and I am using the following methods
1. Iperf throughput comparison among local vlans
2. Iperf throughput comparison with remote data centers servers.
3. Ping/ftp upload/download comparison with remote DC's. FTP file is around 3GB.
Today I have tested the above with the new setup and compared it with the old setup. For the tasks 1 & 3 I found better performance with the new setup. However the task 2 did not show any performance increase infact the throughput was much lower comparing to the old setup.
My house is a two story bldg n my room is upstairs. I got my ipod, playstation 3 and laptop all hooked up plus another one downstairs.. The thing is when all of these are working at the same time i cant seem to play call of duty online (example) is there any way i can speed up my connection so all devices work at the same pace? Keep in mind my wireless internet has about 200gb of data.
I have tested internet speed on Ethernet (~20 Mbps), but when I'm connected via wifi network, it drops down to ~11 ? The speed is same on all wireless devices even when I sitting next to the wifi router.
Just upgraded to the 30mb cable modem. When I hook my laptop up via cat5 and run a test I get like 28mbps. Via my router I only get like 11mbps tops. What do I need to do to get more speed via router?
I have a my book world NAS wired connected to the router (dir-655 A4) but i have slow transfer speed by wifi max 300 kB/sec. i use a asus pce-n15 wifi adapter on my pc and the wish or qos is not working
I have an old metal-walled mobile home that I plan on converting to a combination shop and man-cave; it's about 200 feet from my home's computer room, where I have a Netgear WNDR3400 wireless-n router. The only place in the trailer where I can "see" my home network is the kitchen window, and I thought about putting a Wi-Fi repeater there to extend the home network into the trailer. But I have read that using a repeater will cut the network's Wi-Fi throughput in half -- which would not please my wife and daughters back at the house. Is there a simple, relatively inexpensive way to extend the network to the trailer without slowing everything down? Eventually I may have Charter install a separate cable hookup there, which would allow a separate high-speed Internet connection too. For now, I just want to "share" Wi-Fi to the trailer.
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 have an old PC in my Buenos Aires apartment, connected to WiFi by means of a receiver module - because the modem is across the room and too far to connect by cable...But I get the message that the device would work more efficiently with a high-speed USB port...If I installed a high-speed card inside the computer, would this improe my Internet speed? It hangs up quite a bit... but then again, it's a Pentium III, so there's that limitation too.
I recently switched from Linksys WRT54G router to MediaLink router. My wired connection speed stayed the same but my wireless speed degraded significantly - roughly from 5-8mbps to 200-300kbps.I measured my wireless speed both on win7 laptop and iPad. My Roku box is also struggling. All devices were in the proximity of the router.I tried changing encryption (WEP/WPA2/no encryption), mode (from b/g/n to b/g to just g), and different channels. Nothing worked, the speed is still very slow.
I've been having this problem with my Belkin router since day 1 when i got it.( not new, got from buddy's place) It's Belkin HI Speed Wifi G router, and what's really frustrating is, everytime i connect to it, I need to manually change the DNS address and switch between 4.2.2.2 & 4.2.2.4 in order to get internet access! Sometimes it even cuts off the internet during a session, without me even disconnecting from the wifi network, where I would again need to switch back and forth to the 2 or 4 ending!
my problem is that i have a computer connected via gigabit lan with a cat5e cable.i have a notebook with a d-link dwa-140 usb wifi adapter connected.and the max transfer speed i get is 14 mbps. d-link dir-655 firmware 1.34eu.in windows it reports 300mbps.in the router it reports 270 mbps sometimes 300. the settings in the router is 40mhz only,. ch 13. wpa2 aes. as described in the sticky.the devices are within 3 ft of each other.
My Sony Vaio laptop is experiencing slow internet speed even though the signal level shows as excellent. This is only when using it upstairs, where it is normally used. In the same room as the router it is fine. This has only just starting happening and it was OK anywhere in the house until a couple of days ago. To make it even more confusing my wife's notebook and my iphone work fine on the network in the bedroom.
I have a Cisco e2500 dual band router.I have a cable modem pulling down 55mps.When I put it through my router I get 22mps wireless and 55mps wired. I want my wireless speed as fast as it can go!I have changed channels, I have gone with just wireless N I have done just Mixed. I contacted customer support and they won't talk to me since I am out of warranty (I just not got internet this fast).One small caveat - when I take the channel selection off auto and change to a preffered channel my one laptop drops connection a lot. We have two laptops and both get the same speed. (No I am not running speed tests with a bunch of other things running etc)
My ISP recently upgraded my line to ADSL2+. I am still only getting 1.36Mbps download speed across WiFi but if I connect my laptop to the router with ethernet cable I get 8.59Mbps. Why is the router slowing down my connection so much?
So I went out and bought a brand new EA4500, because I thought my old router was bad due to horrific wifi Speeds on my Wireless devices like my laptop and Samsung Galaxy S3. Well now I have the same issue with this new router.My speed from comcast straight from the modem is 25mbps down and 5mbps up, on the routers through a wired connection I get the same thing. As soon as a switch over to Wireless my connection goes from 25mpbs/5mpbs to less then 2mbps down. I've reduced the MTU, and I've tried turning off QoS. Nothing seems to work
I recently bought an E4200 and noticed that the wireless speed keeps dropping as it stays connected.As soon as I power it on, my iPhone and notebook connect at 54Mb, but as they remain connected, the speed keeps dropping to 48, 36 and one morning, my phone was oscillating between 5 and 11. The iPhone was almost at the same spot, and the signal was around 85~95%. On my 3 year old DIR-300, the speed don't change at all, and it's in a place where I can see around 15 connections. On the E4200 I can only see 2 other networks.I've already tried switching channels, fixed and auto channel, updating firmware and a few other common configurations. At first, I thought it was my repeater, but I turned it off and it didn't work. Turn my cordless phone off didn't change it also.

I upgraded my Internet speed with my ISP to 60Mbit/s and I get following download results at speedtest.net:Is there a way to speed up my wireless connection with this router? On the sticker it says 54Mbps, so I would guess it should be possible.
