We have just moved house and,so,when Talk Talk had connected us,I decided to run speed tests on everything.
Carolyn's laptop (old Asus) gave 10Mbs :thumb:
Mine (Dell) only gave 4.6 Mbs
And,even worse,my desktop (built by me 8yrs ago) returned 2.6Mbs-it was connected via Power Sockets and a Lan lead.
I decided to change my desktop to a wireless connection and ordered a Laptone USB wireless adapter from Amazon. Because I had forgotten to change my address for 1 click purcachase it took 3 days to get here
Any way,this morn I disconnected the Lan lead,plugged the USB adapter in-Windows 8.1 detected it and loaded the drivers.
Bingo :thumb: 10.2 Mbs.
This afternoon I plugged it into my Dell laptop,had to use the mini disc supplied as Win7 couldn't find drivers,but,5 mins later I was able to connect using it,and,guess what-10.2 Mbs
I am well pleased,and have ordered another one :thumb:
