I just setup wifi in my home server, a 300 mbit capable wifi 802.11n card
I was expecting to get a pretty decent speed to access files from my home server from multiple computers at once by using an ad-hoc connection, the home server is connected to the modem through ethernet cable and my computers use the ad-hoc network to access internet and local data
but I get an average of 1.5 MB/s (about 12 mbit) on my local network which is digustingly low seeing as both my laptop and my homeserver are 300 mbit wifi capable
so what gives? Why am I not getting near 300 mbit local performance? The bottle neck is definetly not the server hardware since it's a dual core intel atom with a 2.5" HDD sata 2 capable of at least 20 times faster IO speeds than what I'm getting right now
