    I love my gateway laptops but need some wireless help, I have a 6831FX and a 6850FX and my router is a Dlink DIR-625 802.11N router. When I connect using the integrated Intel Wireless it says i'm connected at 144.0 Mbps, but when I use my D-Link DWA-642 PC Card i connect at 300 Mbps, is there something i'm missing? is anyone connected at full wireless N, if so with what router? any help would be greatly appreciated?

    Even with a connection of 300 the actual transfer rates are never that high. It would be interesting to see how high the transfer rates are with each card, regardless the connection rate.
