Hi, Wifi is not something I consider myself an expert upon. I understand the security problems with WEP, WPS, WPA and WPA2 fairly well, and I've read some docs on fragmentation, RTS thresholds, and channel width. I don't consider myself a newbie here either.
Try as I might, I just can't seem to get decent performance out of my home network. It's a 802.11n network, theoretically 300 mbit/s, however testing with iperf between a Linux wireless laptop and a wired linux server results in 60-70 mbits reported in either direction.
What is the wireless chipset in the Linux laptop?
It's a Lenovo-branded Broadcom chipset in a Thnkpad using the brcmsmac driver; I don't have the specifics handy but can reply with them later. TC
