ok, so i get 46-48mb wired consistently, wireless is a bit less consistent, im running my dir 655 with qos off, only on wireless n, with the channel width to 20/40 auto, using all n devices to connect macbook pro- seen it hit from 20-45, usually around 30-35, just tested and it hit 40.5, earlier it wasn't wanting to go above 30, on my dlink router page it shows the device with a rate or 130m which im assuming means its a 130mb connection in 11n with 100% signal strength, so why cant i atleast get the full 46-48 i get wired hp pavilion dv6 seen it from 5-45, usually between 10-30, just tested 3 times hit 24, 10, then 29.5, earlier it was holding a rate of 130 and i got a speed test around 45 megs, now while the mac is connected and not even active on the network it is showing 65-78m, dont know why its goin up and down, mode is 11n, signal 100%, ps originally i couldnt get this computer to hit 30 untill today i turned the channel width to 20/40 and to wireless n only instead of ng i dont know if these r normal wireless losses, or if i could be using better hardware/software router combinations, seems like if i had 1 wireless device connected, it might perform better then with multiple, tho my router should be able to handle a few small connections, and even when i test with the macbook or the dv6 as the only computer on the network, the wireless tests are still inconsistent, i figured in this day and age we would have some pretty solid wireless technology, but im still having trouble getting a steady wireless connection, aside from the fact my apple tv has always showed a rate of 65M in wireless N with a 100% signal strength, and hasnt lagged since i have made these changes maybe i should try connecting to the cisco wireless to compare, but its in bridge mode and i feel this would be a huge pain in the ass
