Speeding up Connection Between Computer and Wireless/Bridged Router
- by Justian Meyer
Hey everyone,
I looked through other questions, but didn't find useful responses.
Our main computer has a dl speed of 6 Mbps, but some of our other computers are getting only 40-200 Kb!
The router is wireless, but all computers are connected using a Netgear Wall-Plugged Bridge XE102, which transmits information via the building's powerline. It can't be the hardware itself, however, because some computers still manage decent speeds.
The computers afflicted are running on Microsoft XP Service Packs 2 and 3, but so are computers that are totally functional.
These speeds severely impede on productivity and are excruciatingly frustrating when trying to cram in time in the early hours.
Could it be an issue with the computer? Location? Router?
Many thanks in advance,
Justian
