Hello, your question is a bit unusual. It seems you're wondering if connecting your Wi-Fi and LAN together could boost your download speeds. (Reasoning) In your home setup, the LAN only provides a 100Mb connection, while your main computer has a gigabit internet link. You're considering linking them so they work together. (Explanation) This approach follows a simple idea—adding connections might improve performance. But it's not guaranteed, and you should be cautious about network compatibility. Your current 150Mbps dongle is fine for the N Wi-Fi device, but combining networks could have unexpected effects. Please let me know if you need more details. Thanks in advance!

Ensure a direct link to your router for optimal performance. Avoid combining Wi-Fi and wired connections, as it won’t speed things up. For networks with limited bandwidth (e.g., 100Mbit), consider upgrading the network switch.
