Hi,
I am curious about your experience with wireless lan in terms of speed.
the throughput on my local network is 1.1MB/s, as tested with dd on nfs
or with scp.
On my laptop, I have an IWL5300ABGN
the switch is a this classical linksys wireless-G switch, and the
workstation is using a DWL550+ using on a USB2 port.
I have checked the net a bit and it seems that experiences and comments
are diverging a bit. It's too much to summarize, here.
My impression is that this is a driver issue with the intel cards, but I
might be totally wrong.
Who has also a IWL5300 device and has perhaps similar experience with
wireless speed?
thanks in advance,
best,
Volker
