wireless card extremely slow

The why is pertinent because unless there is an overwhelming need for
wireless it makes no sence in the circumstances stated.

forget the why.
I'll check on the model # of the card tomorrow

My first question would be, why? If your only 3 feet from the router
why
use wireless?

news I just installed a wireless LAN card in my desktop, I had disabled the
onboard LAN connection to ensure no conflict, it sets no more than 3
feet
away from my lan antenna/dsl modem, it's a DLINK wireless card and
it's
horribly slow, it takes a loooong time to load web pages, and this is
an
ADSL
connection, I switched back to the onboard lan connection, any
suggestions?

xp seemed to recognize the card and connect without supplied software,
I
installed it anyway as it allows for a configuration utility.

I had noticed on initial load after install, things worked great, a few days
after initial load it started getting slower and slower.


You might try tracking down some reviews for the particular product.
Either try the Newegg customer reviews, or look on Amazon. There
are some less than acceptable products out there.

I'd probably try it without range boost, and see
if that makes a difference at all.

I might also try it with another OS. If I could find
a Linux driver for it, I might fire up a Linux LiveCD
and do some testing there.

If you post again, please include the DLink card part number,
and the make and model of wireless router you're using. Maybe
there is a review on Smallnetbuilder for it.

only in your mind, it makes sense to me and my situation and you don't need
to know more about why.

Since I can't figure out why your asking why, your query makes no sense to
me, the why isn't resolving my issue.

When you find a wireless card the consistantly provides at least equal
performance & reliability as a wired Lan, then do let us know - so far I've
yet to find one.

Most likely very true. Since this is my first foray into the world of
wireless internet, I'm finding new things out daily.
The card is a D-Link WDA-2320 it's capable of 108 MBPS, but so far is only
getting 54 MBPS that's half of it's capability, I do not find anything in the
config software to allow for much in the way of changing settings.
