Verizon FiOS → Re: Can't get an ethernet connection in a room with only coax

Either get a better wireless router or a better wireless card in the laptop. I'm on the 150/65 tier and using a wired connection to my laptop I get 155/70 speeds. Using the wireless connection I get 150/70 speeds. Of course I had to use the proper channel to get me those speeds. Only one channel gave me those speeds, the other ones were still easily faster than 100Mb/s but did not reach 150Mb/s throughput like channel 40 did.

aaronwt,

Thanks for the info/recommendation, but it is not worth it to us to pay for FiOS TV Ultimate to get the extra Interent speed of 150/65 (see my earlier posts on TV / Internet bundling in my area).

The LAN MoCA bridge is working great for us at 75/35 and there is one less wireless network competing for channels in our neighborhood.
