Poor Signal

[lpc300]

Hi all,

About a week ago I postedhere . I purchased a Netgear 'b' router. After a number of configuration problems (my fault...I'm used to setting up peer-to-peer networks), I got the router working and my network was online. Here's my problem. When I am connected th the internet (cable connection) I notice a significant difference in the speed of the internet between the computer connected directly and the computers connected via the router, wirelessly. Doing some speed tests, I regularly get 1.5-2.5 mbps on the wired machine and only 300 kps or less on the wireless machines. When I was experimenting with a peer-to-peer connection (no router), using the same machines, the wireless machines were nearly as fast as the wired machine. All hardware is 'b'. Is this normal? Anything I can do to remedy this?

Thanks in advance

Make sure you have the latest firmware for your router.

You da man, GLC. Downloaded upgraded firmware. Installed. Problem solved. In fact, the wired connections are faster, too.

Thanks much.
