Howdy all,
I have a Linksys WRT54G router. Its an older version, say about 3-4 years old. Its been great. I have two PCs running off it wirelessly and a third running with a wired connection.
Under normal circumstances I get about 10-15Mbps on the wired connection, and up to 28Mbps when Comcast's "speedboost" kicks in. On the wireless connections I average about 8-10 normal, and 15-17 with speedboost.
However, tonight this suddenly has changed. On my wired connection everything is as normal. Great speeds and reliability. However both computers connected via wireless are experiencing a MAX of 2-2.5 Mbps down and about .5Mbps up.
I have reset the modem and router multiple times. I've tested the wireless on both a desktop and laptop, with the same results. The wired connection is unaffected.
Any suggestions on what I might try? Or is it just time to retire the old blue beast and get a new one?
Thanks
