Wireless Speeds And Standards You Might Want to Know About 

Bewildered about wireless home computer speeds on your wireless home computer
let me explain.

Wi-Fi is the umbrella term for the standards based wireless local area network communications protocol.

When you talk about wireless data connections, you're talking about Wi-Fi today.

The 802.11-G-Router Here is a listing of approximate indoor wireless computer
distance for 802.11g 54 Mbps - 20 meters about 65 feet

The 802.11-N-Router Wireless Speeds 4 Times the Range and 12 times faster then wireless, G. N- MIMO (multiple input multiple output), in which a number of antennas transmit Data.

Again this is under ideal conditions, don't go crazy over these spec's folks, go with N for media-intensive applications (video, games, etc) what's next wireless z? See Arranging wireless antennas.

You can cover a large room if you put the wireless router or access point in the center of the room and place all of the wireless computers around your computer

I have found that most of the router work exceptionally well under 100-ft, if you need
the greater range go out and purchase a range expander or some high gain antennas

With an increase in wireless speeds 802.11g which is rated at 54Mbp unless you install a 802.11b card (11Mbps) , then the speed drops to the slowest device 802.11b, 802.11g are compatible with 802.11b.g,n network interface (NIC) cards.

Quick Tip: The wireless speeds gold standard is *802.11n - the newest, fastest and most powerful (so far) 802.11 radio technology that broadens bandwidths on the 2.4 GHz band.

Two standards work together fine 802.11b and 802.11g,n But if I where installing a new wireless network or adding new wireless pc's

I would use the 802.11 n for all of my computers.

Wireless Home Computer Speeds - No Matter How Fast We Still Want To Go Faster

Interference doesn't kill a wireless network connection, it just slows it down as the connection fights through the competing radio waves.

The intermittent nature of the interference in the home or business makes it difficult to track down the offending devices, so focus on the
cordless phones and microwave ranges which operate in the same
2.4 GHz band width.

 

   Wireless Speed and Wired Networks Quick Tips

 Troubleshooting cabling performance If you're experiencing connection problems- check the following

  • Look for sources of interference, such as power outlets, fluorescent lights, power supplies, and coiled or extra-long cables.
  • Make sure all cable connections are secure. Check the link light on the network card - Nic - the devices you are connecting with each cable.
  • Make sure you have used the correct type of cables, either straight through or crossover. Check hardware setup instructions and configuration to verify which cable you might need.
  • Be sure that you have not used a telephone cable in an Ethernet cable port.

The Speed Chain Of Command Goes Like This

  • Coaxial cable Uses shielding to keep the signal focused which reduces interference
  • Twisted pair Most commonly used in wired networks - UTP Cat 5e,6a twists the pairs around each other to reduce interference and reinforce the signal.

Here is a kit to make your own cables if you buy the cable in bulk, and save money by doing it yourself

It's Not Uncommon In The Computer Industry

To exaggerate a little about the wireless speed of their devices, after all is a 17-inch monitor really 17 inches.

The main reason for the wireless speeds inflated rating is that some of it is taken by overhead, and even these lower capacities can be limited by distance, walls and other wireless environmental conditions.
