| [OOL] Wireless Speeds
My area has recently been upgraded to 15/2. I checked my speeds on a wireless laptop through a linksys router wrt54gs and a webstar modem. I am getting downloads of 6-7 mbps and uploads around 1.5 - 1.8 mbps.
I am tweaked at 128480, defaults, 1500, etc.
Do these speeds seem to be in line with 15/2 considering I am on a wireless connection as well as a router?
Many thanks. |

Waldwick, NJ | No, you should be able to push the full wired speed on a WRT54GS while wireless.
Do you have a wired computer? What do you show for speeds? |

Nanuet, NY | Hi Geek NJ.
I have a wired computer and am getting 8.9mbps down and 1.7 up on a fairly regular basis.
The wired computer is tweaked at 65535, defaults and 1500, etc. I haver never been near 15/2 yet.
What do you think? |

Waldwick, NJ | I think even with stock Linksys firmware, if that is what you are running, you should push higher speeds. I use third party firmware on my WRT54G.
What does the OOL speed test show? |

Nanuet, NY | The OOL speed test shows 850KB/sec. Occasionally I get up to 1.2.
I don't think I have ever updated my Linksys firmware. |
