Good day.
I am trying to figure out something and I hope anyone could help me with this issue:
My home network is configured this way:
1.- Internet access provided through an AXESSTEL D800 1xEV-DO fixed wireless modem-router (extremely awfull performer I haven’t been able to disable as a router but only “broadband” solution available in my area) connected using its 10 Mbps ethernet port to one of the four 10/100/1000 Mbps ports of a
2.- D-LINK DIR-655 draft-n wireless router configured as an access point (DHCP part is done in the AXESSTEL).
3.- Desktop nic (10/100 Mbps) wired to port 2 of the DIR-655.
4.- PS3 (wireless G) linked to the wifi network (with WPA2-ASK enc) provided from the DIR-655.
I know that the maximum -optimum, dreamed- speed for the wireless part of the network is constrained to the PS3 adapter to theoretically 54 Mbit/s (being 19 Mbps a more tipical and realistic figure).
To make things worst I think that because of the 10 Mbps port of the AXESSTEL the whole LAN -wired/wireless- gets limited to 10 Mbps, am I right?
So, if this line of thinking is right, I could just simply unplug the AXESTELL, enable DHCP in the DIR-655 and gain speed (limited to wireless G), right?
If that is true then I would loose internet acces, so how can I connect the modem-router to have internet access but not making the things slower? Is a 2 desktop NIC adapters a solution? How?
I know these are plenty of quetions and I thank in advance to anyone that could shed some light over this annoying issues 🙂
