I expected this response. You or someone posts the same thing whenever wireless speed is questioned. Anyway, I have already implemented all of the suggestions made regarding enabling disabling various settings. Firmware is current 2.7.1.60. As mentioned in first post, none of the suggestions make any difference. No interference from neighbors, etc. This is the second home I have set-up with the RBR50 with the exact same problem. The best analogy I can come-up with is the router becomes constipated. Restarting is the only thing that clears the issue. Forgive my venting. I realize this is a user forum and appreciate other users piping in with their experience.
