C7000 slow wifi speeds

I recently purchased the C7000 (had the C6300 before and it was TERRIBLE) and it has been great so far but the wireless is much slower then it should be. On the C6300 I would get 50-60MB/s but on the C7000 I get at max 20MB/s connected to 5Ghz when transfering files between devices and when connected to 2.4Ghz I get 10-12MB/s. Wired I get 70-100MB/s which I expected a little better results but thats not bad at all.
Anybody have any suggestions on a way to fix this?

    Hello Sopalins

     

    Try to change your wireless channels and test the speed and if that does not improve try lowering the mode speed down by 1 and see if that helps.
