    About a month ago, i received my T60p with the included Thinkpad A/B/G/N wireless card and immediately connected to my wireless network. Being that the router is Draft-N (Belkin N1), I consistently got 300 mbps.

    Now, for whatever reason, I am only getting 54 mbps ("G" speed) no matter what i do or how close i get to the router. I've reinstalled my router and checked for firmware updates, so the problem shouldn't have anything to do with that. I've also checked for driver updates for my computer, and I am completely up to date. In fact, all of my software and drivers are up to date. Any suggestions? i am completely dumbfounded :confused:

    try un-installing access manager and using windows wireless network utility. the access manager could be adjusting power settings and perhaps disabling the "n" functionality of the card. LMK what happens
