If you've got wi-fi coverage issues, the best way to "fix" it is to put up outpost wi-fi Access Points (AP's) to fill in the holes and cable them back to your router. (Wikipedia's article on 802.11N has a rather nice table showing "stream" counts, channel widths and their corresponding max link rates.) To go faster, you need three (in both router and clients) which avails a step up to 450mbps max. and you already have a "N" NIC so you're benefitting from he "tricks" N has up it's sleave to improve "range" (not that it's partiularly spectacular.)ģ00mbps (using N) is the fastest link rate you can get with 2 antenna/RF chains. I doubt anything will make a dramatic difference on range - wi-fi output is limited by law an most kit is already at or close to the max.
The big difference of the 6230 (from a casual inspection of the product briefing sheet) is that it's 2x2 so you might get 300mbps Tx and 300mbps Rx (antenna count and router permitting) and it's "dual band" enabling you to use the 5GHz wi-fi waveband (again if your router supports it.) So that leaves you only with a choice of two, one of which is probably much the same as you already have. WiMAX is not wi-fi, it's a different wireless technology, so no point in that.
This suggests you have 2 antennas in your laptop, though to be sure you could open up the NIC inspection panel in the case and look to see if you can see how many connectors it has attached.ġx1 NIC's will be a step backwards and will (proably) limit to 150mbps Tx and 150mbps Rx (only uses a single antenna/stream) so they seem pointless. Install the driver from the Toshiba site. Start device manager and note the version of the driver you are currently using. You already have an B/G/N wi-fi NIC with (according to the spec) 150mbps transmit rate and 300mbps receive rate utilising 1 TX (transmit) stream and 2 Rx (receive) streams. Then head to Toshibas web site and get the driver they have for your wireless device. They do the same thing with HDD's and NIC's (amongst others.) But as long as they bear the same "HP" part number, they are equivalent and interchangable. But when you buy them, one week they may be Kingston, next week they may be Fujitsu. HP often use different kit to achieve the same thing but give the the same "HP" standard "part number" (the six digit-001 numbers.)Ī good example of this is with RAM sticks (I'll invent the names/number for illustrative putposes.) "HP Part number" 123456-001 might specify a RAM stick with DDR3 8GB.
