The computer I use the most, besides my main machine, has a Linksys WUSB300N adapter.

Thanks for the suggestion to Vistnumbler, I'll have to check it out later and report back. NIC status right now: 243Mbps Signal Strength: 4 out of 5 bars. The router is set to broadcast in B, G, and N.ĭ: How do I check dB? I've seen it in Everest and it's reported as following: I've seen it peak uploading to another computer in the lower 200Mbps range.Ĭ: Yes but it wasn't connected to the network at that time. If you get the time it's a Belkin Surf.ī: Don't know. There's other tools, but are not free and have limited chipset support on the adapter side.Ī: I believe it's full N not draft. Something like Vistumbler can show this - simple free tool You should be checking signal quality via dB and not Mbit You might get a link reported as ~108Mbit but due to packet loss and interferance the throughput is usually a lot lower. It also doesn't account for packet loss, which is a major issue for wifi.

Especially 802.11g devices? The router proly falls back to G mode then and can't do both G and N at the same time.ĭ:Also, windows (& Linux) is terrible for not reporting signal strenght and link speed incorrectly for WiFi.
