The internet download speed as measured by (speedtest.net) is ~15 Mbps
when I try to connect from my desktop. From a different machine (my
laptop), I get around ~30-40 Mbps. Could you please tell me how to fix
this?
Network connection:
{desktop or laptop) connected wireless to -> linksys wrt54g router ->
ISP (optimum)
On the desktop, I am using "Panda Ultra 150Mbps Wireless N USB
Adapter" <https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00762YNMG/> to connect to
the router.
The laptop has a builtin wifi adapter, Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265.
The desktop is running Debian stretch. The laptop is running Windows 10 Home.
Network adapter information on the desktop using lshw:
% sudo lshw -C network
