[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1632170, member: 234411"] Hello again - thanks for the 'screen shot' - your router is using the 802.11n protocol and its transmit rate is way above what your are detecting on your laptop & iPhone; security is the same as mine, i.e. WPA2 - I'm kind of 'stumped' @ the moment - you should be basically getting the same speed on wireless as you did wired! I have Time-Warner cable coming into my house, my maximum incoming speed averages about 20 Mbps (stinks!), but the speed on my cabled iMac and my MBPro on Wi-Fi (i.e. next to the router) is the same. Try the 'power recycling' as mentioned in my P.S. previously - probably won't help, but who knows. Post back - hope that some our network 'gurus' will chime in - Dave :) [/QUOTE]
