Re: file transfer speed

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

if i download torrents then i am carefull to set things so i don't choke my speed .All i am refering to is transfering files using copy/paste/move ect to external drives router is a belkin n1 vision my wirless adapter is 802.11b/g i am aware that that i won't get 'N' speeds with this adapter but i plan to upgrade my laptop later in the year so i will get one with a faster adapter to fully utilise the routers capabilities

thanks for your advice

thanks "DanS" happy to hear i'm running ok been having a few probs
with new router setup but it seems i'm ok now

By the way GMorris was completely correct about using torrents over
wireless. 1 torrent user can easily kill an entire wireless AP.

hi, i just want to get other peoples opinion on wether a file
transfer speed of 2.60MB/sec onto a nas drive over wireless
connection sounds about write the file size is 6.56gb i am using
vista hp on a compaq laptop

2.6 MBytes/sec = 20 MBits/second. 802.11G standard mode is 54
mBits/sec. - overhead (TCP/IP and RF link maintenance) and 20
mBits/sec sounds about right, as the fastest you would ever get is
around 30-ish mBits/sec.
