    Desktop closest to router has slowest speed test

    I've been getting my results from a speed test offered by Comcast. See my last results below from my laptop. I pay for 50Mbps so 45 down a floor and on the opposite side of the house looks good. http://stage.results.speedtest.comcast.net/result/307601982.png I also found my wireless...

    Desktop closest to router has slowest speed test

    Yes, I have this page with the Stations List showing the Mac Address of each device by network. However, right after the address it says "associated authorized'. None of the fields to the right in your example even have a column label - Rx/Tx, Speed, etc. Nothing on that side of the report -...

    Steve, You might have a point with the WiFi card antenna - somewhat. I've done all the recommendations that jlake recommended (including the link) except reset the router. Hoping that the antenna on the LAN card is the issue, I pulled the desktop out from beside my desk facing it forward...

    Desktop closest to router has slowest speed test

    Newbie question - are some wireless LAN cards just not good enough to pickup a strong signal? I've just setup an ASUS RT-AC66 router and getting a good 2.4GHz signal on several devices except on the HP-P6774 Desktop that's a foot from the router. Here's some speed test results...
