Hi: I have a Motorola Surfboard Cable Modem and a NetGear MR814 Wireless Router (802.11b) I also use a Compaq Laptop with built in wireless (802.11g)
When my computer is connected directly to the modem, I get around
650kb/sec download, but through the router only around 200Any idea what might be the issue here? I am only 20 feet from the router and I tried it from 2 feet away.
Is it some kind of incompatibility between the g and b protocols? I upgraded the firmware on the router. I also tried to see what the download is at a hot spot, but the speeds there are slow, either through too many users or capping. I also tried to see what the downloads are at quiet times, say 4:30AM with no improvement.
Thanks,
