My wifes laptop works fine and the net speed its just where it should
be.

However, my own laptop is just half the speed it's supposed to be.

Why?

Hi
May be it should be this way according the the Hardware used.
It is impossible to answer when No technical facts and numbers are included.

what brand and hardware model/rev wireless network card? is it built
in? right click computer, then manage, then device manager and
expand the tree and find that network adapter and right click, then
properties. what driver version?

is this a USB wireless card attached to a USB 1.0 port (would be
slower)? what brand computer and model, etc?
