From: "Gregg Hill" greggmhill at please do not spam me at yahoo dot on 22 Aug 2008 15:49 I just found this article when Googling dozens of complaints about this Intel wireless card. http://support.intel.com/support/wireless/wlan/sb/cs-006205.htm Some say it fixed it, other say not. Some say old drivers work fine while new ones do not. I will go there on Monday to try both that article and old drivers, and I'll bring a newer wireless router to use as a test.

No I did not, but what does it have to do with extremely slow wireless web browsing? The RestrictAnonymous reg key is related to computers browsing each other on a network, not a computer browsing the Internet, as far as I know. As I noted, my problem is with browsing the web when connected via wireless vs. no problem when a cable is used.
