Hi
I have a Powermac G5, an iBook and an iMac G4. Each has its Airport Extreme card installed and they talk to one another through an Airport Express.
I've made the connection between them just fine but my worry is the transfer speed of either reading the files on another machine or actually transfering them between one another. If i simply want to view the files on another machine, it can take up to 3 or 4 minutes for the folder list to appear in my Finder which i can only assume is wrong.
My desktops are both in the same room but my iBook gets moved around the home. The Airport is in the same room as the two desktops - not more than two metres away.
has anyone got any suggestions or have i set something up incorrectly or is my Airport malfunctioning?
I bought all this wireless gear as we are getting ADSL broadband in a few weeks and i wanted wireless internet access this way, but to be honest, the file transfer speed is running more like a 56kb modem and NOT the 54Mbps they claim on the box.
Please help
Cheers
