I recently purchased 3 Vostro 3550 laptops. I am going to recap my experience with this slow wireless access problem. If anyone has any ideas/suggestions, i would appreciate it. If I can get a solution/fix for the issue, that would be beneficial as I would like to keep the laptop but otherwise I'll have to get a refund. I know that if I use my laptop in the house only, I could change the hub settings, but I'm obviously concerned that if I take it elsewhere, I would have paid £700 for dial-up internet speed laptop! The KnowHow staff member suggested that there may be an issue with this particular network adapter and Windows 7 and explained that he couldn't fix the problem.
We then went into power management and made sure that the computer wouldn't reduce power to the card when running on battery.This however didn't fix the problem as when I turned my hub back to 300mbs my internet speed crashed back down to the figures above.

I have made sure that the wireless adapter drivers are up to date so I rang a local IT company who had to change the 802.11 mode: from 300mbs to 54mbs on the hub before I could get a decent internet connect (about 20mbs down and 2mbs up).Ĭurrys then called me to check I was happy with my purchase and I explained the above, their KnowHow staff member then came on the line to discuss ways of problem fixing the issue. When I connect wirelessly however, that drops to about 0.17mbs down and 0.2 up. When I hard-wire the laptop into the router, I am getting approx 30mbs down and 3mbs up. The issue I have is regarding wireless connection to my Virgin Media Super Hub. I've just purchased a new Dell laptop from Currys (Dell Insprion Q15R, which has the follwing spec
