    Problem Windows XP WIRELESS LAN THROUGHPUT does not exceed 54mbps

    Hi L&LD, Re Bufferbloat... your memory/recollection is pretty good ! I actually did read the part you were thinking about where it said Windows XP wasn't affected by Bufferbloat because its TCP stack didn't use Scaling by default. I just tried TcpOptimizer and applied to All Adapters and...

    Problem Windows XP WIRELESS LAN THROUGHPUT does not exceed 54mbps

    Hi Remixedcat. Both Vista and Win8.1Pro were already run on the same machine and have double the throughput, so I'm confident it's the WinXP OS, not the hardware/adapter. Thanks.

    Problem Windows XP WIRELESS LAN THROUGHPUT does not exceed 54mbps

    I sincerely appreciate everyone's input & ideas!!! A quick re-cap: I have tested other N Adapters in this and other WinXP computers. While I'm easily able to connect at higher "LINK" rates such as 300 or 450, no matter what I do, I can't get WinXP WIRELESS "LAN Throughput" above 54G (while...

    Problem Windows XP WIRELESS LAN THROUGHPUT does not exceed 54mbps

    Actually, it's the casual user that I'm reaching out to :) :) :) Can't tell you how many times that has been the pathway to a solution (rather than a tech support department)

    Problem Windows XP WIRELESS LAN THROUGHPUT does not exceed 54mbps

    @sfx2000 Thanks for the input. The "identical" Vista32 (or Win8.1) notebook has almost double the throughput in the same test, so I'm thinking that would/should eliminate the wired connection speed (the Server is the same on all tests). It's worth noting here that I swapped drives...

    Problem Windows XP WIRELESS LAN THROUGHPUT does not exceed 54mbps

    Thank you, I appreciate your feedback and input ! I grabbed the latest drivers from Intel for the 5300AGN. I've been using the Windows Wireless Zero Configuration method, but I also tried Intel's proprietary management software as well... no difference. Yes, I've tried all of the various...

    Problem Windows XP WIRELESS LAN THROUGHPUT does not exceed 54mbps

    The Core Question: Is there a known issue with Windows XP preventing WIRELESS LAN from exceeding 54mpbs THROUGHPUT ?? Regardless of my Connection LINK Speed (450, 300, 144), the LAN THROUGHPUT doesn't get much over 54mpbs (in Windows XP, but it is vastly better in Windows Vista) Emphasis...
