Rather hard to explain... but yes, the wireless system is running approximately 1.75 to 2.15 x faster in everything than the desktop. in every test.

All drivers I use are (WDDM) both systems.
my only guess is the difference in the wireless and the NIC Card in the desktop?
Is that possible?
or is Home that much faster than Ultimate?
it was very strange to see every site I downloaded from in the 1.6mbps to 1.83mbps once I even see 2.1mbps....and when I dl'd from MS speeds started at 1.65 mbps and went up and over 2.0mbps...

NIC card in Desktop is: Realtek RTL8168B/8111B Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.0)

Are there any links known that honestly rate NIC cards on performance...
Thanks in Advance
