it's connecting to a dlink dap-1522 AP which is connected thru a gigabit ethernet to a dlink dir-655 router. and all my media are streamed from a windows home server box.
band is set to 2.4ghz
bandwith to auto 20mhz and 40 mhz
wifi mode i tried both, N only and, N and G (dual band)
tried both with wireless security and without
i tried a couple of channels but failed so i gave up and just enabled channel scan.
according the the AP, the cdr-king dongle only has a 24% signal strength compared to my other dongle which is at 85%. too bad, that one has a ralink chipset, not realtek. i'm thinking or returning in exchange for another... maybe i got one with a bad antenna?
