| 401372 | 2005-11-02 09:12:00 | I have just installed a ZyXEL USB Wireless 802.11g adaptor on my PC to Network with my HP Notebook, which has a built in 802.11 b/g card. I have used Windows setup to configure the network which all works OK. However :confused: the speed of the connection only shows 11Mbps even though the signal strength is excellent. Why would this be so low? (Wireless b speed!??) |

| 401377 | 2005-11-02 22:26:00 | They are set to G & distance is not an issue...trying them out 1 metre apart. | muzza (7316) | ||
| 401378 | 2005-11-02 22:28:00 | The PCI has a PCI USB 2.0 card, but I have noticed when transferring photos via these Ports from a camera it comes up with a message saying that the transfer will be faster if a USB 2.0 port is used, so I need to check that out further. Thanks for that. |
