#802.11B/G/N HOW TO#
The difference between the connection speed that Windows shows and actual data rates are primarily due to the amount of service data, wireless packet loss, and retransmission costs.įor information on how to check wireless network transmission rates, see the following article Actual connection speed in Wi-Fi technology. The real data transfer rate depends on many factors, such as 802.11n access point settings, the distance between the client and access point, the number of wireless client adapters simultaneously connected to it, etc. The actual bandwidth of the connection may be significantly lower during data transmission. the operating system only reports the current (instantaneous) physical connection rate (called channel rate). It shows what connection speed at the physical layer is currently used within the selected standard, i.e.
#802.11B/G/N DRIVER#
The wireless adapter driver displays this number. For example, in the Windows operating system, it is shown in the 'Speed' field on the 'General' tab of the 'Status' window of the wireless connection. To begin with, many users incorrectly focus on the connection speed (in megabits per second), which is displayed in the connection information. Maximum data rate and connection speed (channel rate) are different things

This article will answer these questions and look at some of the most effective ways to increase the connection speed, bandwidth, and stability of a Wi-Fi network when using 802.11n.

Why is the connection speed 54 Mbps or lower when connecting a wireless adapter that supports 802.11n?.Why is the actual data rate significantly lower than that displayed in wireless status?.Users periodically have questions about the speed and stability of Wi-Fi devices. Decide what you need most: maximum coverage, fast or stable connection. In some cases, you may want to choose a parameter that is most important to you. The main characteristics of a Wi-Fi network are coverage area, connection speed and quality. The most common at the moment is the IEEE 802.11n standard. Many modern devices (smartphone, tablet, laptop, router, TV) use Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi technology is becoming more and more popular and widespread.
