Hello, I have a Belkin N wireless router with comcast broadband. I have two laptops that are connected wirelessly. One is a toshiba with Vista and the other is a MAC. My problem is that the MAC connection speed is sometimes slow, sometimes as little as 5Mbps, that is with excellent connection strength. The normal or usual speed is around 120Mbps. It happens at all times of day and night, no matter what the day of the week.

I guess I'm just wondering if this is normal, or if it may be the router?

Thanks :smile:

Doesn't sound like the Router, if the other Laptop is receiving a good speed.

Are you sure the MAC has a Wireless N NIC Card ?

How are you measuring speeds ?
