11mbps is speed that the connection has negotiated. the actual transfer speed goes up and down as the ISP waits for your stuff and you wait for its responses. if you ask for something biggish thats easy to get then the speed will increase according to how many users are logged on with your ISP at the time. you should be able to increase the connection speed to 54mbps. This does not always increase the overall speed but will help it run more smoothly. The dominant feature is the quality of the phone line. other less important effects are: Quality of wireless signal is also key to reducing rejected frames, this delays transfer of packets of data to the ISP and Back again. Security method complexity and wireless chip/ router chip incompatibilities contribute to poor performance. a low negotiated speed of 11 may be a sign signal is poor. reducing security to nil, and then gradually increasing to WEP,WPA,WPA-2 will show how the speed negotiated goes down in poor quality, or incompatibility situations. |
