pitbull, you downgraded!

Ah, I see, but German is pretty consistent with its grammatical rules, unlike English, and proper English is not learned through speaking to people, since nobody speaks proper English anymore.

And you say this because you speak German?

Moving it to a different place with a longer ethernet cable might be possible, but it will be risky in my situation (long story, has nothing to do with the actual physical networking).

I may call the manufacturer, but I'm not sure what to say........... Do you think buying a new antenna would make a drastic improvement?

Should I get a new antenna? Would it help?

Someone else. But like I said, it's consistent, every game I play. It's the same kind of lag too. I know it's the wireless bridge.

OK, I bought it, and have had it for a couple days now, and when I play Halo 2 on Xbox Live, it's really laggy. Consistently. This is a problem I didn't have with my Xbox wireless adapter (MN-740). What can I do to fix the problem?

wildace, that's a cached test. Clear your cache and try this test.

Yeah, I know what you're talking about, but with IE 7 it will start even further through the test than it normally does, and it'll give me results that I know are at least partially fake, like 3.5 Mbps. I know my line isn't capable of that.

I don't know how, but I've had tests that were 'partially cached' before, like right when I started the test it would already be at like 10% finished. I didn't even have to use the back or refresh button, it just automatically happened with IE 7. If you're using IE 7 try testing with IE 6 or FF. It is possible, though, that they over capped you or bumped you up to the 3/384 package whether by accident or on purpose.

A comparison of the two speed tests using my home connection...

Yeah, I'll give them that, it's probably the second best well know speed test out there, but TMN is #1!

Just an excuse for me to post speed tests.... The Speakeasy/Speedtest.net speed test was taken between the two testmy.net speed tests. Local gaming center, AT&T DSL, 6/608.

Wow, what an upload...

Wow, oooold topic, but it's ok. When I opened the topic I saw dlewis's speeds and was amazed that he could get that on a 6/512 line, then I saw the ISP and remembered he used to have Adelphia......

Hey, you're right! Thanks!

You mean this one or this one? Either way, I kind of need the built in 4-port switch that comes with the Buffalo one.

Yeah, I was using those files from download.com for my on mini version of "the bench". Not to prove that one site is better than another, but because I was bored.

Thanks guys, thought it looked like a good wireless bridge (it has a built in 4 port switch ), but I was kind of worried about it because it's from Buffalo, and I've never used anything from Buffalo.

Well, now you're not 1986 Kbps above your advertised speed.

Well, my official Xbox wireless adapter (Microsoft MN-740) just broke a couple days ago (when I plug it in it doesn't turn on) and I'm looking for a new wireless bridge. I came across this as my first choice. Does anyone know anything about Buffalo products? Is this a good wireless bridge?

That's pretty dumb, what if you want to have a 100 Mbps LAN in your house? Surely there's a way to force at least the LAN ports to 100 Mbps.

Sorry, but I figured, you know, it is a spam account..... But go on, tell them what I attempted to download if you want. It's not like it's anything bad....
