i just got boot camp up and running this past weekend on my spring '08 macbook pro, and i've noticed that my wireless connection while running XP, is a fraction of what it is when running OS X.

i currently have my computer in the same exact location in my apartment, on OS 10 i have a 5 bar connection, and reach download speeds in the 200's kb/s , last night and today i was downloading things while in XP , my connection only had 2 bars and was downloading <20 kb/s . switching back and forth between the OS's had the same result, so i was wondering if this was a known problem, and if there is anything i can do besides go move my computer next to the router while running XP
