Hi, I recently got a new PC from PCS and selected "WIRELESS 802.11N 300Mbps/2.4GHz PCI-E CARD" and that turned out to be the Realtek RTL8192EE Wireless LAN 802.11n pci-e card.
I was getting very low download/upload speeds, I updated the driver off realtek's website which improved it slightly but the speeds are still fairly low compared to what I had on my previous PC from PCS which I got in 2016.
When I check the properties for the network adapter, it still only shows 802.11b or 802.11b/g under wireless mode. Is this expected or have I missed something?
I've also tried changing wireless channel on our Virgin mfd to a less congested channel than 1, 6 or 12 iirc.
Appreciate any help.
