Sorry if my post wasn't clear. I have fiber to my laptop and I put in megabytes instead of megabits per second. When I hook up my laptop to the router via fast ethernet 10/100 I get 13+ megabits per second downstream and 1.5megabits+ upstream.

When I connect to the linksys router via my 802.11G card I get less than 8 megabits per second downstream while upstream remains 1.5+ megabits per second.

I am not complaining that my speed is too slow, I am just wondering if anyone has successfully connected with greater than 10 megabits per second using an 802.11G card.

I do not have any other wireless users connected to the linksys at the moment, and I have the wireless router set to use 802.11G only.

I am considering upgrading to an 802.11 pre n device, but first want to see if anyone else can successfully get greater than 10 megabits per second out of their card.

I only pay 50 per month for 15megabits per second downstream and 2 megabits per second upstream and the service has been excellent. We are considering getting the television over the fiber in the future also.

I tested the speeds to speakeasy's dc and new york servers from right next to the antennae of the linksys router and the speed is listed by the card as 54megabits per second.

Thanks
