I have a PC in my garage I use often with a wireless connection (one of those with a long wire, and a big receiver). Used to work PERFECTLY, damn near matched the speed of my wired connections.

Recently bought a video card because the on board wasn't cutting it, and was forced to move the wireless card down 1 PCI slot.

All of a sudden I get shit speeds -- like 1/10th of what I should be getting. My connection goes from full bars to 3 bars.

I don't have another slot to put it in because it's a micro-atx board. Have checked all of the software/driver settings to make sure it wasn't limiting the card.

Anyone have any ideas?
This happens in alot of Motherboards where the Bandwidth on the Board for the card is Less then having it in the slot closer to the Processor
