Something slowing me down..

[Nothing]

Quick question. I have wireless internet to a computer in my house. We have 2 computers. I downloaded a 14MB file on the computer that does not have the wireless internet and before the DL finished it was at 500kb/sec and climbing. I then go to the computer with wireless internet and and download the same file. I get 150kb/sec MAX. . Not sure..

What wireless do you have? A/B/G/super g?

 

[Nothing]

I have G.

 

[Motoxrdude]

That seems about right. Thats what i get with mine... Are you downloading from the same host? Also, shut down any p2p programs running.

 

[Nothing]

Same host, no P2P progs running.

Why is it slower?

 

[Nothing]

so can I get it to go any faster..?

 

[Nothing]

anyone?

 

[Nothing]

Eh? why cant i get the same speed as the other computer..?

 

[justric3]

having it wireless suppose to have a slower connection

How strong is the signal? A low download speed will likely be caused by a weak signal, or if there is interference. Wired is the best option if possible.

to be honest with u I had the same problem with my wireless as well.. I used to have NETGEAR G Router (before I move) and my laptop's connection was getting slower once in a while and I had to restart the connection to fix the issue! I have a sense that maybe your router is not a good router in keeping your laptop connected or maybe something interfer with your router (like a radio transmitor or something)
