[QUOTE="bence8810, post: 524626, member: 33623"] Hi I have performed another test. I plugged in my MacBook to my switch directly with a CAT5 cable, and iPhoto goes like a dream. Its fast, responsive, beautiful. I logged in to my SAMBA server, and checked the throughput on the LAN interface. While on WiFi, it sends data to the laptop at a speed of 2200KBit/sec and when on LAN, it sends 9000KBit/sec. Well, its kind of obvious, my Router is slow. Its a Netgear, supposed to support 54MBitx2 in Super or whatever mode. Can I make it faster somehow? It only gives me 22MBit/sec. If I buy an Airport station, will that increase the speed, and not only add to the looks of our apartment ? :) Will an Aiport station perform at the desired speeds if I also have other Windows PCs with 802.11g cards in them? Thanks Ben [/QUOTE]
