Or at least thats what the people told me when I said why I can only ue 5mbit/s I got better results when I put the cards closer, I had about 590kbytes/s But 800?! how can that be possible? Did you have any kind of compression? I dont have encryption on the link. It is kind of funny though that closing some compression stuff actually improved the link quality although compression was not in use Evren On Sun, 22 Dec 2002, David Delibasic wrote: > Hi. > > The results you are getting are very strange.
