Alpha has an FTP Server installed in it.</p> <p>2) Router with Access Point in Master Mode. 3) Net-book with windows 7 installed.</p> <p>Product IPAddress Net-book 192.168.1.10 Router wi-fi adapter 192.168.1.1 Alpha (wireless Product)waln0 192.168.1.7</p> <p>Router is connected to net-book via Ethernet cable. The LAN port of Router is connected to Net-book . There is no other connection of Internet or any other wired connection.</p> <p>My Task is to download the files from alpha to Router and measure download speed of router.</p> <p>Alpha product is successfully connected to Router and I can ping router from Alpha. At this point I tried to ssh into router from netbook with port 22 but it refused to make connection. How will I make ssh connection? 2) I can ping from my net-book to Alpha. I failed to understand how this work even though I have not connected net-book to router nor to alpha. 3) My main issue is to measure the download speed of router . At this point I can telnet into router but I don’t know username so I failed to login but when I tried to do ftp from net-book to Alpha it works . My question is downloading the files on net-book is same as downloading on router . I am more interested in download speed of router does not care about file downloaded or its contents. Could someone please throw light on it? Thanks ....</p>enMon, 04 Mar 2013 04:15:28 -0500Comment by Samprat on darkonc's answerhttp://linuxexchange.org/questions/3004/download-speed-of-router-is-same-as-download-on-laptop-with-router-connected-via-ethernet#3058<p><a href="/users/1780/darkonc">@darkonc</a>, I apology for my bad communication skills.

You're more likely to get an answer on a Windows-oriented website.</p>darkoncSat, 02 Mar 2013 21:03:42 -0500http://linuxexchange.org/questions/3004/download-speed-of-router-is-same-as-download-on-laptop-with-router-connected-via-ethernet/3052
