just got myself a new 2200 Intel card and put it in my dell 4150. the internet seems quick for the first couple pages i get then it just gets bogged down to less than dialup speed. when i "log off" the connection and reconnect, the same thing happens. quick at first then bogs down. i have tried using a wired connection with the same router and it never gets bogged down. i've also tried this on multiple routers so i know its not the router i use. i also have a usb wireless card on my desktop box and it doesn't get bogged down either. haven't tried that USB wireless device on my laptop yet, im not at home at the moment. just wondering if there are some buffer settings that i need to use for wireless connections. using win xp pro.
