    Hey all,

    I have a problem I can't seem to figure out I had vista installed on this computer and the wifi was fine, it ran at 6.5mbps or so, however after changing to xp it runs at max 2.7mbps. I installed the proper driver for xp from acer's site, tried pretty much any option I could find but my download speeds seem to be capped at 2.7mbps. I tried hooking it up to an ethernet cable and I'm getting full speed. So I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts or suggestions I could try out?

    Thanks in advance to anyone who helps :D
