[regan1985]

nope both netgear, my and my friends card are bith wg111t which came with teh router,however my other friend is directly connected to the router via lan and only has a 53mb internal card so we never get 108 the best we have had is 54 but, not for long it goes down to 2 or even 1mb even if the signal is 70percent?!

We have a Netgrear wireless router and all our systems are connected to this WAN.
All our connectors are connecting at 108, except my server which is hard wired to the router. I get 100 speed.
The wifes, laptop and spare are all connecting via Netgear 108nic wireless cards.
When you purchased the components, did you specifically purchase the 108 wireless NIC cards?
They are different than the rest of the NIC cards in speed.
They have a different part #=WG311T is correct.

Wireless is easily unsettled by "competing" WLANs. Check to see if there are other WLAN's locally, by scanning. Unfortunately, some wireless networks are set to NOT broadcast their ID, so you cant see the network, but its still there causeing a conflict. Try another channel.

The second issue is interference from mobile phones and DECT phones. Move them out of the way and see if that helps.

Or it could me microwave or cordless phone interference. Just because you are "supposed" to connect to something at sed speed, doesnt mean you will. Its hard to connect at 54mbps and keep it constant. Also, anyone else around you (be it next door neighbor, apartment, etc) can cause interference. Id try adjusting some of the registry commands for routers and nics. Its worth a shot.
