Hey Guys,
So i bought a DIR-655 and am very happy with it just a couple of problems i noticed and i need your help first let me tell you my setup.
Desktop Computer (DWA160 Wireless N)
Apple Mackbook (Wireless N)
IBM Lenova Laptop (Wireless G)
Ps3 (Wired to Router)
Xbox 360 (Wireless Adapter)
I Also go WISH setup like this
Xbox (Voice High) Protocol: Any Host Port Range Any
Macbook (Video High) Protocol: Any Host Port Range: Any
Desktop (Video High) Protocol: Any Host Port Range: Any
I use my Mac mainley for streaming so far workes flawless over wireless even if laptop is upstairs
My problem is with the desktop it seems like it is slow when downloading for USENET i use GIGANEWS some days ill get 1.15 mb/s and some 56K
No other devices will be using the network so it is all the desktop using the bandwidth and it is slow
I updated the drivers on the DWA-160 to the latest ones and the router firmware to latest one
Why is it so slow for a wireless N adapter my Macbook is so fast 130mbps over N but this usb card is no where near the speed of my mac
So I was thinking...
Moving router from downstairs main room to upstairs near desktop so i can have a wired connection from Router to Desktop and make my ps3 wireless
By making the ps3 wireless will it effect the performance of videostreaming from my mac if i had wish still enabled for mac and ps3 if so i could always plus my laptop to a spare ethernet cord in the router and stream
or should i leave ps3 wired and find some way to get my desktop downloading large files properly
Also can someone please explain to me the difference between QOS and WISH
thanks!
