Hi guys,
I'm on 300mbps fibre broadband, using an Asus N56U router. On my windows 8.1 desktop, I'm using a Belkin N300 USB adapter (802.11n, 2.4ghz) which is supposed to max out at 300mbps. On OOKLA speedtest I only get 20mbps. The desktop is no more than 6 ft away from the router and has clear line of sight. Signal strength is at maximum, and there is no channel interference because I am getting much faster speeds on other mobile devices like the ipad.
On the router, I have configured to N only, 20/40ghz, and WPA2-AES. On windows when I right-click on the wifi connection status it says connected at 144mbps. So why am I only getting 20mbps?
