About what did you pay for the router? What is the model number? What is the
rated speed of router?

They are 3 modes of the n router.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Wireless N but only 120mbps

Hi All

First want to say thanks to all that replied to my thread "Allowing 
guest access to Internet not lan" which I'm going to go with the 
multiple router route. Now is that my second router is a Linksys but my 
nic's are Rosewill (all being "N") I have a problem of only getting 
around 120mbps bandwidth through the Linksys.  I don't get the reported 
300mbps even with the Rosewill and matched NIC's I get 270mbps and the 
router is only 10 feet away or less with a clear shot to boot. So I'm 
concerned about using the Linksys router in this case. Since the 
Rosewill router is only 40 bucks I might consider just getting another one.

I read somewhere that you have to have to match the NICS to the router 
in order to get maximum bandwidth. Is this true or am I missing 
something somewhere? Is this bandwidth normal in this case? The 
bandwidth is barely better than super g mode.

By the way my Rosewill is the Easy4 using WEP security, shared key. My 
environment is home/office more home than office. With two desktops 
wireless and two laptops wireless and two desktops wired.

Thanks

Brad Feuerhelm
