I ahve a Vostro 3555 laptop and a Lenovo aThinkpad T420. This morning, My Vostro began experiencing under 1mb wifi speeds from my Verizon FIOS access point. It normally receives 25/25. My Lenovo is experiencing 25/25 right now. They are wiithin 3 feet of each other.

I have disabled the onboard wifi and added a AirLink 101 usb wifi adaptor. Same spped results.

I have connected to the router via cable, and I receive 30/25.

Any ideas? Yes I rebooted.

A follow up on this. I found my iPhone had the same issue. So, I rebooted the Verizon Router. The Vostro is now back to speeds of 65mb. While the Lenovo is @ 130Mb. So, what can I do to increase the Vostro speed? It is using the Dell 1701 N adapter.
