    hey guys,

    when I connect my xps 1645 with Wifi (broadcom 802.11n wirlesss card) i only get a download speed of 2,5 mbit. upload is 1.5mbit

    with lan i get 22mbit download and 1.6mbit upload.

    I have downloaded the latest drivers for lan and wlan using Slimdrivers:
    SlimDrivers [Automated Driver Updates] - Coming Soon

    I know I did have a faster download before. I have no clue what changed and even several Windows reinstallations havent changed that.

    Help would be appreciated.

    Cheers
