#INSSIDER LINK SCORE FREE#

The best I could come up with was Channel 11+7 with a Link Score of 42-45. This is after the previous settings were changed on the wireless Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1030. I used inSSIDer and based on the Link Score tried every Channel and extension variation. I don't know enough about the details of the router to begin down that route. there is no option for '40MHz Only' unless this is a setting in the reg that I would have to update. On the router side, The Bandwidth option is '20MHz only' or '20MHZ+40MHz Auto'. If not, I set the option as close as allowed. I used the setting at: Wireless Networking - What are the recommended settings for 802.11n connectivity? the best I could.

An interference free WiFi will almost always give you 300 Mbps connection (2x2 stream, 64-QAM, 40 MHz channel width). Try switching to the best channel using Inssider and see if you can get at least 144 Mbps (2x2 spatial stream, 64-QAM modulation, 20 MHz channel width).

If your router is set to broadcast 300 Mbps connection and you're not getting that, it means there's WiFi interference in your location. The 72 Mbps connection rate is obtained by 1x1 spatial stream, 64-QAM modulation and 20 MHz channel width. However, if you have overlapping channels with your neighbor, your channel width will go back to 20 MHz and this will reduce your speed to 1/2 of the 40 MHz channel width. The Centrino 1030 supports MIMO as well your router. Here's the recommended Intel settings for maximum N connection: Wireless Networking - What are the recommended settings for 802.11n connectivity?

Try setting your Bandwidth to '40 MHz only' if there's an option.
