WNR2000-- How do I get more speed?



Trying to understand what is holding up my wireless network. My service is 30/2 and I am able to easily achieve in the 27-28/2.5 range when connected directly to my Motorola modem.

Via the WNR2000 though, I only see about 12-13/2.2, and that is on two different brands of laptops.

I have the Network Mode set to "Up to 300Mbps", not sure what else I have to do? How do you determine where the bottleneck is?

Thanks

Have you checked to see how many wireless 'customers' are using the same channel? That will slow you because you have to wait for the channel to "clear" [not being used].

The WNR2000 has a menu to tell you what is currently used - pick an unused.

I'll take a look at that, although I doubt there is any congestion. We're in a pretty remote area, only neighbor to speak of is about 800 hundred feet away.
