Whats your iPad Wireless N speed ?

[Hammie]

I can't find the client data on my Linksys WRT610N AP. Oh well. It is plenty fast for my needs.

"a little bit" is how I keep it straight

That's what SHE said....

I'm having the same issue with a WRT160...no idea where to find the speed

So if I may interject.....

With my ATT DSL I get a maximum of 6MB/s. A wireless N router will not help me at all with speed to my iPad and iPhone, correct? At least in regards to data I'm moving from interwebs?

I am wanting a new router but the way I see/understand it, a wireless N router would not benefit me.

What say you?

if you are indeed getting 6 MB/s and not 6Mb/s then you WILL benefit form a 802.11n router 802.11g in the real world will struggle to hit anywhere above 3MB/s, and given that the new iPhones/iPads can reach +15MB/s in good scenarios, you might benefit a fair amount

Okay........upon further review this is what I get "Up to 6.0 Mbps".

Using various speed tests apps and such, about the most I've been able to get (from the internets) is about 4+/- Mbps.

thanks for clarifying that, you will not benefit from upgrading to an 802.11n router

The higher rate is my iPad, while the lower is the iPhone4. Both connected to a Dualband TC.

The TC is connected to 200Mbps cable. Too bad there is no ethernet port with these things.

no problems at all, you would benefit from internal file transfers of course - so if you do a lot of those (wireless backups, streaming movies over the network etc) then you will benefit

Nah, right now my backups are done by USB and while I have Netflix VOD on my boy's Wii, I have zero issues in regards to streaming.

Thanks again,
