I don't know if it will help but I had very low wireless speeds on my laptop (using a different router).
Even with the connection status showing a link speed of 300 Mbps the throughput never managed more than about 25 Mbps!
Eventually I had a look at the connection properties (of my Intel 4965AGN adapter in Windows 7) and found (Under 'Configure, Advanced') a setting called 'Throughput Enhancement' which had a default setting of 'Disabled' so I changed this to 'Enabled' and my wireless speeds have more than doubled (still slightly less than wired but close).
Call me 'w23'
At any given moment in the universe many things happen. Coincidence is a matter of how close these events are in space, time and relationship.
