Thread: Wifi issues

just got the bsnl bb connection today.
however noticed an issue. if im connected via lan then i get upto 1.8mbps speed.
but on connecting via wifi 802.11g my speeds are reduced upto 300 kbps or even less.
why is this happening?
please help
thanks

Mention WIFI router mode number., and 100 Mbps for LAN connection.
If your Tariff plan is upto 2 Mbps may not make a big difference.
Speed of transfer usually 54Mbps for wifi routers .
2.
Test your speed in wifi mode and lan mode and give results as

Keep your laptop/wifi mobile close to the modem and check. How far are you from the modem ?

i'm just beside the modem.until i get proper speed i'm not moving :P
i checked every nook and corner of my house.getting the same speed. began to wonder if its cause of some wifi limits or something?

I am now on a MAC OS desktop , and no admin facilities. cannot install software.

Your present ip no harm if you post it here. I will try. if id admin pw admin

switch off modem after 10 minutes. Ip will change. .

copy/Paste this data
Start run type cmd ok
new window
type ipconfig /all
( Only this required No tunnel data if OS is vsita etc )
You can check if any driver update possible for wlan card.

my laptop is few years old but i've the latest drivers for the wifi card installed. and my os is xp sp2.
what to do then? will that command work?

i tried the command and it showed some data.should i use the command over wlan or lan?
because rigt now my wlan is disconnected.

essbebe are you able to access my ip?
should i disable firewall?

Unable to access the IP you gave. Is it dynamic Ip or Default gateway ?

Any way backup your modem/router settings to say
C:/My Documents/ router working
The if you cannot access , RESET to factory settings and reuse old settings from above location.

2. Try tcp optimizer from speedguide.net.
use default or optimal values.

essbebe mine is dynamic ip i guess cause dint apply for the static.
and i had disabled my firewall and everything for ur access.
today electrician is coming anyways.once the line is transferred to my room mostly ill use lan
but thanks to you all i learnt quite a bit

p.s how to backup the router settings?? is there some command??

You will find in the LHS panel of your modem. Mostly under " Administration ". Post the modem menu screen shot.

meetdilip and essbebe my wlan has finally started working properly after i used tcp optimiser.
god its an amazing tool.just in 10 seconds everything done and reboot and voila getting 2mbps over wlan
thanks a lot guys for ur tips

Always Welcome
