Buffalo Airstation Turbo G & loss of broadband speed in UK

I've got the following setup.
PC running Ubuntu 10.04LTS, with a Virgin media modem NTL250 with a Buffalo Airstation Turbo G wireless router running Tomato Firmware v1.27.1798.

The router is is used by a Internet radio, a wii (both full time) and a nokia N86 mobile and a PSP (used occasionally). The PC is connected by a network cable to the router.

Now, when the modem is plugged directly into PC i get 6 to 8 Mbs download speed. When I go modem to router to pc the speed drops down to 512 to 824Kbps. Speeds were obtained off of broadband.co.uk speed tester.

So, where has the speed gone?

cheers

Found the problem. The QoS incoming bandwidth was set really low. Pushed it up to 20000 k/bits and it flows thru nice and fast now.

Still no fast enough for the maplins IPTV box though. Will be taking that back tomorrow.
Seems to be locked to BBC iplayer and a restricted Youtube front end. Entering other streaming tv channels is a real pain.
