I have a HP Pavilion 15-p007tx Notebook PC which has a IEEE 802.11b/g/n wifi adapter. The speed of the connection is 50Mbps on the home network and the router supports 802.11n protocol. The laptops connected on the home network are connected using the 801.11n protocol and are able to get the full 50Mbps speed. Since my laptop uses 802.11g protocol the speed is restriced up to 25-26Mbps on the same network. I am unable to figure out the problem. I have updated all the network drivers still the problem is there. The laptop uses 802.11n protocol on college network. Please help me solving the problem on my home network.

If you have no other g equipment in your house you can likely force your router to only accept n connections. Exactly how you do it varies a little bit from router to router. Some clearly say g/n support and and other talk about mixed mode. You will have to read the manual.
There are some nic that also allow you to set them to only run in N mode but those are not as common.

Seems the netgear is somewhat limited in the ability to set things. I really hate manufactures who use the same model number for vastly different devices. Most links come up are for the old version of that router than can only run 802.11g.
Did run across this. They seem to enforce the 802.11n rules on wpa2 so you must run wpa2 on this router to make it run 802.11n.

I am running WPA2-PSK [AES] since the beginning still the problem is there. The model no. is Netgear WGR614 N150. I am using two more laptops connected to the same network, they are connected using 802.11n only on the current laptop is giving problem on home network.
