Re: wireless adaptor? what do i have

What model number of Asus if it came built in... or make/model of adaptor if
it's and add-on.

Remember it also depends on what kind of reception you are getting.

Re: wireless adaptor? what do i have

Currently all mainstream wireless adapters offer 56mbps speed. Some offer
"speed boosters" that claim to offer faster speeds but this claim is not
borne out in reality. The newer 802.11n adapters, once the standard is
approved, will offer higher speeds.
