Why do I ask? Well, even though I have a 77Mb/s profile, I'm getting no more than ~53Mb/s. But today I tested direct from the modem and got the full 77Mb/s. I tested immediately afterwards with the router and only (!) got 53. Which to me points to the router not really coping.
So what are you folks, who are actually seeing the top speeds, using?

Wireless is more variable depending on device and router. It appears that Android devices don't like the ZyXEL routers.

Out of the two the Zyxel is my best option, i get a much faster download speed over wifi with it and to be honest my speed seems to be getting higher, checked this morning and im up to 63mb now was only 59mb last week
It doesnt seem to over heat either and stays cool

My HTC Wildfire is perfectly happy with the Zyxel router, as have been other Android devices.

With my Billion 7800N, still on 1.06d firmware, the best I've seen is ~55Mb/s, wired (wireless is similar)
With a Technicolor 582n, kindly supplied by PN as part of the IPv6 trial, I get 70Mb/s, wired (wireless not tried)
There is, I understand, 1.06g firmware for the Billion now, which, possibly with a QoS frig, should get the Billion into the right ballpark. I'll try that as soon as no-one else in the house is using the internet and I have a bit of time free.
Back on the original theme, if you are getting top speeds, please post your router details!

To be honest I didn't expect any higher as I am really at the top end anyway.

The wireless side does not seem to be as good as other's have reported, most I've seen is mid 30s. But this is not the latest model, and I've had to enable G as well as N so that may be impacting things.

I've just started to use the Technicolor TG582n and i'm already seeing a big improvement. Same speeds wired as I think that's my limit but wireless has increased to 57.72Mb. I'm happier and will now try and tweek some settings to get the wireless higher.
