Hi everyone,
So I've just replaced my decade old wireless 'G' router and adapters with wireless 'N' router and adapters. The router is TP-Link WDR4300 and the adapter is TP Link 822N. Both of which are rated for 300mbps on 2.4GHZ band, and 450mbps on 5ghz band.
I do a bit of streaming and file transfer from my HPTC (wireless) and with the old 'G' router, I get about 2.2MBps. With the new wireless N router and adapter, I am getting transfer speed of around 5.3MBps (which is roughly 42mbps).
This is no where near the rated speed of 300mbps, or even close to half of the rated speed.
Is this what I should expect real world performance to be at? About 1/7 of rated speed?
Or am I not setting up my wireless network correctly?
Thanks in advance for comments/feedbacks.
