Wireless Networking Questions...

[San Sabastien]

Hi Peoples,

Today I upgraded my Virgin Media broadband to 20meg, however, I've done a few broadband speed tests and it's giving me results like 4meg and 6meg download. Would my wiresless networking be causing this? I have a 54mbps usb dongle and router...if I buy a faster one will that improve my internet speeds?

Thanks,

Sabastien.

Thanks for the advice guys.
The computer downstairs has a wired connection, I've plugged it in to the modem and ran a couple of speed tests. I'm getting results of 17meg plus...one test it even told me that I had 51meg :S

Would purchasing the new linksys wireless -n router and usb thing help me get similar speeds upstairs? I think the transfer rate on them is 300mbps
