    WLAN speed tanking!!

    I installed the manufactures drivers for the WLAN. It worked fine for a while but now it ranges between 100kps to 200kps, used to be around 600kps. The screwy thing is sometimes I get an upload at 600kps?!

    I sometimes get and error message (WEP ERROR) when I hover the mouse over the conection button.

    Nothing has changed in my set up since before the problem started.

    I'm thinking of installing the original drivers since I never really had that much trouble with them. Any advice?

    First of all what notebook are you using?

    Try using links from RaLink's website, you can dig up the link through google or searching this site. [ :)]

    I have a 6130, I've installed the Ralink drivers and still had problems. Although this can also be attributed to my modem as well. Conection speeds are spoty sometimes.
