I'm now dual-booting Vista 64-bit and XP 32-bit on my m1330. In Vista, the WiFi works 100%, no problems connecting at 54Mbps. However, in XP it initially connects at 54Mbps, before falling to 24Mbps, 9Mbps and settling at 5.5Mbps.
What the hell is causing this? I'm using the Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN.
Thanks.

Whats your signal strength or SNR to the router?
-
Signal strength is 'Excellent' (maximum bars), and I'm placed in the same place as when I use Vista (which connects with no issues).
-
Must be drivers then.
-
I'm just using the drivers from the Intel page. Seems strange for it to be the drivers, I wondered if it was to do with XP power settings, which are completely different to Vista's and seems to be less to configure.
