[QUOTE="ukchucktown, post: 969729, member: 129039"] If you experience slow throughput on your wireless it could be the same problem I recently discovered and isolated. I use a D-Link 655. It supports wireless b/g/n so I was using mixed mode to allow my Macbook and an iMac to connect at n speed while allowing a wireless Brother printer to use g. All was well with the exception of my Macbook. I'm running the latest OS X 10.6.2. The iMac runs 10.5.8. I performed a speed test, the iMac was getting 15 MB/sec, the Macbook 3 MB/sec. I systematically turned on/off settings including encryption and channel scanning in the router configuration to determine the root cause. My Macbook could not handle the mixed mode setting. I had to disable mixed mode and set the router to wireless g. With that one change speed on the macbook went from 3 MB/sec to 16 MB/sec. The iMac was fine with mixed mode so it's a problem with the Macbook only. [/QUOTE]
