Hi everyone,

This is my first time posting on these forums, and I am hoping to solve this nagging problem with your help. I have a linksys e1200 router which is about a year old. Further, I have comcast internet cable. I am suppose to get 54 mbps download speed, and I do get these speeds when I am wired to my router. However, I only get 25 mbps download when I am wireless.

Here some solutions I have tried:

Change the channel of my router (I changed it from auto to 10) It did give me a slight bump in download speed.

I turned of WMM which bumped up my download speed from 16 to 25.

Can anyone please offer me a solution to this problem? Thank you!

I have set it on auto (the only other setting) which supports 20 and 40 mhz. I get much lower speeds with WMM enabled. Setting it to a lower channel actually lowers the speed...

Thanks for the response!
