Linksys WRT54G V3.1 + Linksys WMP54G NIC
 

Lo, replaced my BEFSR41 with the above.

Anyway, to cut a long story short, I only get transfer speeds of 2400b/s(around 20meg by my calculated)

Both are meant to be "up to" 54meg, but despite my NIC being literally 6 inches from the router, and the pc im transferring to being wired to the router, I get only 20meg.

Router settings:
Wireless G only
Transmission rate: 54Mbps

ps, it has the latest firmware :s

I recently softmodded my xbox, which means lots of streaming and file transfers which is why I'm bothered to do something about it.

What speeds your nic?

Re: Linksys WRT54G V3.1 + Linksys WMP54G NIC
 

54Mbps too.

Mode set to 54g performance(tried 802.11b)
Rate is set to 54, but tried auto too.

Ive got the WRT54GS router and a Linksys wireless NIC and found the same problems. I thought the issue was with the router as there are loads of cracked firmwares around that allow you to increase the power output of the router. Although these did seem to increase the throughput slightly it wasnt that good still. (i also kept losing connecting with MSN Messenger if i left it on a long time)

I wirelessly connected a laptop and has no such issues. Seems to me that Wireless NICS from Linksys are pretty poor, having said that, i've never tried any other make of wireless NIC

I guess ill have a fiddle with the NIC settings :/

I had a fiddle with router & nic settings, it bursts up to 2900kb/s now and stays around 2650kb/s

btw, I tried using ethernet for both PC's, and get a steady 11,000 KB/s transfer rate :(
