The upload is exactly the same and both are connected with g. In my tests, the RTL8192CE has throughput of roughly 20 Mbps when connected to an 802.11g network as a station. As 27 is the maximum, 20x is impossible. When an 802.11n connection is used, I get about 80 Mbps. You need to give a detailed setup, and actual numbers, preferably when connected to a local host, not something on the Internet. > Signal is lower but still good at 4/5 meters from the barebone. > > Any potential reason? Driver rtl8192ce is optimized to work as a station. If you want better performance as an AP, you will have to sort that out yourself. Larry
