Default Slow wireless web browsing


I have to first vent and say how frustrated I am. I take pride in
solving most issues within a few hours of research, but unfortunately I
have not had such luck with this one. Listed below is my equipment and
situation.

Equipment:
1. Dell XPS M1330 Notebook Computer w/Intel 4965AGN Wireless Adapter
and Vista Ultimate x86
2. Belkin N1 Vision Wireless Router

Situation:
Web browsing is extremely slow and in some cases times-out on visiting
a lot of sites (but not all). Downloading files is no problem and my
rate is great. It seems as if the problem is related to a Windows Update
because everything was working fine, then one day just started
happening. The problem does not exist when this notebook computer is
hardwired or on other computers (non-Vista) that access this router. The
problem also does not exist on some public wireless access points. There
were a lot of updates that happened at the same time, so I have not
started pulling them out one-by-one. I can't help but think someone else
is experiencing this problem and may have found a solution. All drivers
are updates and router has the latest firmware. I did the netsh
autotuning disable when I first setup the computer (as it was a problem
on a lot of Vista desktops that I have worked with).

Thanks in advance for any help.

Tom

Hi Tom

Just a shot here, I know a lot of people around here are seeing the same
type of problem and not only with Vista. Since so many people are going
wireless they seem to be picking up someone else's network first and the
symptoms they are seeing is exactly the same as what you are explaining.
After turning on your system check to make sure that only your router is on
the network.

Thank you for the suggestion. I named my wireless network something
absurd so I know I am connecting to the proper network. There are other
wireless networks in range, but the signal is very weak.

Have you tried right-clicking on the Network connectionProperties unbind
TCP/IPv6?
Some people say it helps.

I tried that, but I seem to completely lose my connectivity when I do
that. Maybe I am doing it wrong, but I just remove the checkbox next to
it. Thanks!

I spoke too soon. The downloads are going slow and sometimes failing
(just on this computer, I have an XP Pro laptop and it downloads the
same files quickly without fail). I was able to disable IP 6 and QoS
without any improvement.

Update: I may have found a solution. On another forum, someone mentioned
an interference problem between built in Bluetooth and my particular
network adapter. I disabled the radio on the Bluetooth and all has been
pretty good since.

Don't forget that other wireless devices, like cordless phones and baby
monitors, can use the same frequency of your wireless router and interfere.
Sometimes you have to switch to another channel in the router.

I had a similar problem. I discovered that there was a conflict with my USB
HUB.

I removed this from my computer and my wireless internet works perfect.

Hope this helps
