The virtual router function in W7 is fantastic and I am running a small PAN now consisting of a media server with a WiFi card and connection to internet, and two laptops connected using WiFi to the server.
My question is about speed and radio type.
The server has a Ralink RT2860 chip which should and reports to support 802.11n
netsh wlan show all reports:
Adapter Ralink with driver version 3.0.11.0 (latest driver from Dec 2009)
Radio Type support 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n
FIPS 140-2 support Yes
Host support Yes
My active connection externally to an access point with Internet shows
Radio Type 802.11g
Signal strength 70%
My hosted network shows
Radio Type 802.11b !!
I went into the device manager and opened the settings for the Ralink card and changed one setting:
Adhoc support 802.11n to Enable
My hosted network now showed
Radio Type 802.11g
How can I set my hosted network to use 802.11n?
Why did it use 802.11b at first?
All suggestions welcome
