802.11n Can't get 270mbps link speed on Macbook

Hi,
I have a Netgear DGN2000 802.11b/g/n Modem/Router and I have tried, and failed, to get my Macbook to sync at 270mbps. I have set the router to this speed in the setup page, but the network utility has me consistently connected at 130mbps. Is there something I need to enable? Or could the problem lie with the router. I have no other draft n spec machine to test on. Is there anyway other than network utility to see what the router is outputting?
Thank in advance

130 mbps is still faster than 802.11g. I suspect the problem is with your router's implementation of 802.11n. It is still a draft standard. Also if your connection is in any way open, it will slow down with each additional machine on the network. Check your router's firmware, and check what happens if only one machine is on the wireless network.
Network Utility reports 130 mbit/sec, and that's just the theoretical limit. I don't believe that's necessarily any measure rate. I think what some people are upset is that it doesn't *report* the full 300 mbit/sec for "link speed" like you see on the 802.11n enabler page:

In any case, there's no way that it would be able to stress out a residential internet connection, although some people probably do home networking (I don't).

  • How can I get the link not to override my style sheet formatting?

    I have an html page with text that has a style sheet applied
    to it. When I insert a link into parts of the formatted text, the
    style sheet formatting is lost in the linked text (the text for
    mylars, shapes and number shapes becomes smaller: see code below).
    How can I get the link not to override my style sheet
    formatting?
    Here is the html code I am referring to:

    Show us this rule --> bodyheader20pt?
    Also, having this in your three anchor tags -
    style="text-decoration:none" -
    will prevent your anchors from displaying any stylesheet
    style for
    text-decoration.

  • Can't get to links on web pages

    I can't get to links on web pages , shrink or enlarge the web page or show the other web pages that are open?The back arrow does work

    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

  • Negotiated Link Speed on MacBook Pro mid-2009 with Kingston SSDNow v300

    Hi,
    I have a mid-2009 MacBook Pro (13") with Kingston SSDNow v300 SSD drive with Mavericks OS X installed.
    I've noticed from different forums that many users have the same problem that I have: SSD drive's Negotiated Link Speed is only 1,5 Gbps, although MacBook Pro mid-2009 should support 3 Gbps speed.
    My system has EFI 1.7 firmware update (MBP55.00AC.B03) installed in and System Info says that 3 Gbps Link Speed should be possible:
    NVidia MCP79 AHCI:
      Vendor:    NVidia
      Product:    MCP79 AHCI
      Link Speed:    3 Gigabit
      Negotiated Link Speed:    1.5 Gigabit
      Physical Interconnect:    SATA
      Description:    AHCI Version 1.20 Supported
    Many users have tried to reset NVRAM and SMC and I have also done these steps, but with not any improvement.
    Some users have mentioned that MacBook Pro mid-2009 has a poor SATA ACHI chipset (NVidia MCP79) and SATA III SSD drives won't work on SATA II speed unless SSD drive is forced to work on SATA II speed by firmware update or by some tweaking tool. Is there this kind of tool available for Kingston SSDNow v300?
    One user says that he got 3 Gbps Negotiated Link Speed on Mountain Lion, but after installing Mavericks, speed dropped to 1,5 Gbps (https://discussions.apple.com/message/23549859#23549859).
    So, is there any way to get Negotiated Link Speed to work on 3 Gbps on Kingston SSDNow v300 with MacBook Pro mid-2009 (for example by installing an older version of Mac OS X) or do I have to buy a new SSD drive from another manufacturer to get 3 Gbps Negotiated Link Speed to work on my machine?
    If the last option (to buy a new SSD drive) is the only option, would it be wise to look for an older model, a SATA II drive, (maybe OCZ Vertex 2) to get 3 Gbps speed?
    Thanks!

    Hi
    I was just as frustated as you after installing the Kingston v300.  I mean it's a solidly built drive with the reliability of kingston (I've been using their RAM for years and years in my desktop PC without problems).  Unfortunately, for a the last 3 months I had it in my 2009 unibody white macbook, it was stuck at link speed 1.5.
    I've been searching in forums since then without any solution.  Even the update for bios is not available for my model.
    I just tried the SMC reset after reading the blog.
    http://thenextweb.com/lifehacks/2010/12/04/how-when-why-to-reset-the-pram-smc-on -your-mac/#!w3XEY
    On reboot, everything seemed faster, so I checked the negotiated link speed and it was at 3 instead of 1.5!  Yay!  Then I checked the disk transfer speed on Blackmagic Disk speed test and it roughly doubled from 138 to 260MB/s.  Now, I'm not going to shutdown or restart...
    I hope this post is useful for people like me stuck at 1.5 Gbps speed.  Good luck

    How can I get HDMI out from my macbook air(2011)?

    It's rather simple. Buy a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. And then a HDMI cable long enough to link your computer the distance between both devices.

    You don't use Airplay.  You set up Home Sharing on both and under the Computers section of AppleTV you'll then find it under Movies (or Rentals if rented), assuming it's in a compatible format.

    If you didn't already do so, authorize your computer for the new ID by opening iTunes and going to Store>Authorize This Computer.  Then sync your phone with iTunes.
