[QUOTE="nick_harambee, post: 498534, member: 27767"] hi i have just bought an airport extreme base station and am connecting a macbook to it wirelessly for backing up data wirelessly to a usb hard drive. i installed the airport software that came with the base station which appears to have installed the wireless n update, and in Network Utility it shows a connection speed of 130Mb, which I am suspecting is megabit per second, and equivalent to around 16MB per second, but i am getting transfer rates of only around 3MB per second with the Macbook right next to the base station with a full signal level. Is there some other setting that i need to change or is this the best speed i can expect? thanks nick [/QUOTE]
