Hey peeps, well just need a little help with some settings just can't seem to find anything clear in any of the threads.
1st.- I'm running vista64 and the speed on my laptop shows 150Mbps on 5ghz and on the status on the router shows 300Mbps. Why the difference?
2nd.-Same thing when I switch to 2.4ghz it shows 65ghz and on the router status is showing 130Mbps so again why the difference.
Any advice is welcome thx in advance.![]()

The i5100 will come with Wide channel width disabled (11n draft 2.0 protocol)
This why you are getting the 65Mbps in 2.4Ghz
You will need to enable the above and 11n in the i5100 device properties.
The i5100 is a 2 Receive 1 Transmit WLAN card.
So it can only transmit at 150Mbps max and receive at 300Mbps max.
Hence why you get the 2 different readings. -
Ok thx! Well it is enabled, and on the channel width for band 2.4 should i leave at auto or set to 20Mhz? What settings should the card be at? And thx again for clarifying.

Leave it at 'auto' but do enable 11n (so that the 40Mhz channel width is enabled)
20Mhz = 150Mbps max
40Mhz = 300Mhps max
and in the not too distant future 60Mhz = 450Mbps max -
Great will do, thx a bunch! + 1rep
