Aikimox Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Hey guys, here you go: The batch has arrived, each card comes with a sticker: Here you go, the first M18x with the Bigfoot Killer Wireless-N 1102 The card is installed: Bigfoot Network Manager: It will test your ISP potential: And then tell you that your internet sux (well, mine does anyway) : The first impressions are very good. My 100 browser tabs load significantly faster than with the 6200. I will go in details later on, too many business meetings are scheduled for today. Will have to take the beast to the office, we have a much faster network there. Might also try the U of C campus LAN to see some real life numbers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Michael Posted June 16, 2011 Founder Share Posted June 16, 2011 The interface looks quite impressive! An iperf test of that vs the intel 6300 at various distances from the router would be nice P.S and a decent router that can push good wireless speeds such as the netgear wndr3700 or the Cisco Wrt400n 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unreal25 Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Yeah the router can make tons of difference too. WNDR3700v2 just rocks on my (W)LAN. I mainly use it for syncing My Documents across 3 computers and the speed boost compared to my old WRT54GL is quite significant. I love the software for this card. It has the important settings right there. Would this software work with other cards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aikimox Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 I tried to install it with the 6300 - no go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
