Solved

Hello,

I think the essential is in the title.
Why is my connection faster via Wi-Fi than with the Ethernet cable directly connected to the Freebox?
I am on a laptop.

Or maybe I don't know how to connect properly.

When I connect with the cable, I restart the computer and let it do its thing; it connects by itself.
For the Wi-Fi, I have to enter credentials.

Is this normal?

Thank you
Configuration: Win Vista

    Is it the speed displayed in the icon or a speed established by testing?
    If you are in the first case, these are maximum indicative speeds...

    On the other hand, for Wi-Fi, you should have the option to save the credentials. This way, each time you start the PC, you have direct access to the internet.
