Well, an 802.11g network has max throughput of 54Mb/s = 6.75 MB/s It
normally has an average throughput of 19Mb/s = 2.4MB/s
So, either you are getting very slow MegaBITS per second or your test
shows bad MegaBYTE readings :-)
I can assure you that I can't get more than max 10Mbps (standard

Maybe depends upon a range extender I have in my location: I read that
this kind of thing takes the global throughput to half, is it true?

I have no experience with wifi range extenders but it seems to me it
should really just 'resend' the signal. If the extender is a 802.11g
device, I'd expect it to produce the same throughput as the original
source. I can imagine there might be some problems with both devices using
the same

Yes. There is a (more or less) fixed throughput available for both

- Ok, thanks Peter for your observations. I gotta do other tests too
(I'm gonna think about yours).
- yeah, your architecture doesn't add but is pro ;)

are N except one G card, I'd expect

That's right. I'm by no means a

For example, Peter, with N, you say is better, but may I ask you the

in my flat there are 1 router, 1 range extender, 2 vista, 1 XP and my

The problem: when I listen to music or watch movies from my laptop (my

It's actually pretty hard to get the full bandwidth that 802.11g promises.
Sorry if I cut a bit but your objection is fondamentally this way
(possible factors: close wireless networks, 2.4GHz devices, ..., ok,
but all linked to your mother reasoning).
But I am telling you that if you see mrtg
