[QUOTE="earl lee, post: 15055134, member: 12754"] This is simple, when you connect it directly to the wire your going to get the fastest speed your ISP allows. The router doesnt have to send it over the air through walls etc. It is taking it from your modem and sending it directly to your laptop. When you connect to the wifi the modem has to take the data convert it to packets and send it over the air where it fights walls, other wifi signals and host of other things. You also advised your router is about 8 years old so you might have a N type router at best. A new router will improve your wifi speed but even then it will not match the speed you get when you hook it up directly to the router using a Ethernet cable. [/QUOTE]
