Yes it does 300Mbs just fine. I get 300Mbps on the 5ghz channel on both the satellite and router. Here is an area where where I couldn't get any signal on my old ASUS router, and even there it is ~300Mbs.

Thanks. I am so tempted to buy it now but I just bought that costly D-Link 890 last year witch works good, I never expected it to do all 3 floors but the powerline adapter just is not cutting it. A good extender would cost $200 if it gave me great speed I would be happy but afraid of waiting the money.
My cverage is not the issues with current router on 2nd floor it is powerline adapter performance. I guess paying $400 and being happy is better then paying $200 and the extender no preforming how I want. I would not be sure what to do with old router
anyway thanks for the imput
