    Hi guys

    Could find anything relevant (and useful) so there it is:

    I am on 150mbit internet connection and the top speed I get (anytime during the day) is 50 maybe 70 tops. I have searched anywhere, read about the power settings and that helped a bit but it is nowhere close to the nominal speed. Tested one dell laptop at the same time and got the nominal speed over wifi. Any ideas, are there any drivers that would sort that thing out - UX31 modem is WIFI N compatible hence I would expect it to provide better performance that I am getting at the moment.

    Would appreciate any word of advice

    All the best
    Cheers

    If 50 and 70 mbit is what you're getting from speedtests that's pretty good for wifi. Tweaking some router settings might get you some better speeds, but depending on how close you are to the router those seem pretty good.

    I can't even get my ux31a touch to connect at wireless N speeds, and on G I max out at 20mbit on a 50mbit connection.
