Why do I see no more than 54 Mbps

Why do I see no more than 54 Mbps on the Configuration Utility status line?
The product literature says the WG111T can operate at 108 Mbps.

I am, also, using the 108Mbps Wireless ADSL Router.

Following message taken from the CD Manual that came with the 108Mpbs USB
Adapter:-


If your computer does not have a USB v2.0 port but rather a USB v1.1 type
port, the WG111T will be limited to the maximum speed of the USB v1.1 port.
USB v1.1 port maximum speed is 14 Mbps whereas the maximum speed of a USB
v2.0 port is 480 Mbps. PC computers can be upgraded with optional add-on USB
v2.0 adapters that provide one or more USB v2.0 ports.
If you are already using a USB 2.0 controller, make sure that you are using
the correct driver for USB 2.0.For Windows XP, you need to upgrade your
system to Service Pack 1 in order to utilize the USB 2.0 port.


How do I know if I have a USB v2.0 or USB v1.1 type port, I have upgraded to
service pack1 a while ago.
Do I need an add on adapter?

USB 2.0 is a hardware upgrade not a software ubgrade. Look at the specs of
your computer. It will tell you if you have USB 2.0.

Also, what type of Modem/Router are you using? Most wireless gear needs to
not only be configured to use the "Boosted" throughput, but also require the
same name brand equipment.

Thanks Robert

I have checked my pc and I have no USB 2.0 Available,


I had a message pop saying :

There are no HI-SPEED USB HOST CONTROLLERS installed on this computer.

You must add a HI-SPEED USB host controller to this computer to obtain
maximum performance.

Could you let me know what an Hi-Speed USB hos controller is please.

Cheers
Paul



Also I have the make of Router has the USB.

You can buy a USB 2.0 card and install it in your system easily from any
computer store. Also you will not find a router that is USB, they are all
ethernet. The USB is only for your wireless adapter you want to connect. Is
your modem USB or Ethernet? USB modems are a bit trickier to set up for
sharing internet connections.
