slow wireless speeds
i have just setup wireless (DLInk DI 524) and got it working fine.
(The Computer Provisioning Logon still appears when i go to my home page (BBC News) in firefox - its OK when in IE. I assume i reboot will sort it.)
I am currently downloading from an FTP server that usually gets about 90k. I am downloading now ranging from 15k to 35k.
I have set up the wireless with mac filtering, WEP-PSK, not broadcasting SSID, ......
Is there a reason will its slow. I have nothing else runnig apart from IE and firefox.
Any ideas?

it looks like it may be the FTP server
i have just run the speed test:
1st 512K took 4266 ms = 120 KB/sec, approx 989 Kbps, 0.97 Mbps
2nd 512K took 4390 ms = 116.6 KB/sec, approx 961 Kbps, 0.94 Mbps
3rd 512K took 5688 ms = 90 KB/sec, approx 742 Kbps, 0.72 Mbps
4th 512K took 4328 ms = 118.3 KB/sec, approx 975 Kbps, 0.95 Mbps
i have 1 Mb broadband so that seems fine
Overall Average Speed = approx 917 Kbps, 0.9 Mbps
